Hi folks,

I am trying to get a linksys pcmpc100 ethernet card working under a
fresh installation of FreeBSD 5.3-Release #2. This is supposed to be
supported using the ed driver. Going through /var/run/dmesg.boot I find
that the card slots seem to be working:

cbb1: <TI1225 PCI-Cardbus Bridge> at device 4.1 on pci0
cardbus1: <CardBUs bus> on cbb1
pccard1: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb1

But then, towards the end of the file, there seems to be a failure
loading the actual card:

ed1: <Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 V3)> at port
0x100-0x11f irq 11 function 0 config 61 on pccard1
device_attach: ed1 attach returned 6

I think the failure of this device to load is confirmed by the fact that
ifconfig ed1 up returns "interface ed1 does not exist" even though a
line for ed1 is in rc.conf (but i might be confused about this step in
the process). I have found nothing searching the web of the archives, so
any help pointing me in the right direction would be wonderful. Also if
this would be better posted to a different list that would be good to know.
