I'm trying to configure a second NIC on my Slack and OpenBSD box (one =
box, two drives). The rt8139 drivers for my PCI, D-link DFE-530TX+(s) =
are compiled into the 2.4.0 kernel. I've been reading the ethernet-HOWTO =
and got the part about adding "ether=3DIRQ,BASE_ADDR,NAME" to lilo.conf =
and running lilo, but I get syntax errors on the line I added. Does =
anyone know the correct syntax? I've tried it in the middle and the end =
of lilo.conf and I've tried it as: "ether=3D0,0,eth1" and "linux =
ether=3D0,0,eth1" (without the quotes, of course), but neither gets past =
the syntax error. Also, does anyone know how to determine the BASE_ADDR =
of a NIC? I've tried: "cat /proc/pci" and "lspci -v" to list device and =
both cards show up on different IRQs and naming variations so I know =
that it's seeing both cards, but no BASE_ADDR as I'm familiar with them =
(0xNNN). I'm trying this first in Slack since it's so similar to BSD, =
but if there's an entirely different method for BSD, then I'd appreciate =
if someone would let me know that as well. Thanks.
