>Description:
Adding "device hme" to a i386 kernel configuratio file should be enable.

Seems that dev/hme/if_hme_pci.h depends of machine/ofw_matchdep.h that
not seems to be present on i386.

Btw OF_getetheraddr() it only present on sparc64 platform so it is 
difficult to get ethernet address....

Maybe this should be great to support that kind of interface on non
sparc64 platform as NetBSD (seems, but I have not tested yet) and Linux as 
well...

>How-To-Repeat:

echo "device hme" >> /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL

and make a kernel as usual.
