Description Karl Heller 2002-04-19 04:10:01 UTC

      Intell EtherExpress 16 is not probed at boot.. nor when specifically compiled in a custom kernel.  Does not show up in the boot -v.  Similar to bug http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=19499

Hardware:
FIC VIA 503+ motherboard revision 1.2A
AMD K6-2 500
Creative labs Graphics blaster Riva TNT
128MB PC100 CAS 2
4.3 GB Hard drive with 2 primary Slices (Win98, BSD) 300 MB extended slice

Note:  Booting use a 3.4R kernel floppy does find the card.  I have not had time to test other releases in the 4.x line to determine when support was dropped.

How-To-Repeat:       Boot the 4.5R generic boot floppy on a system with an EtherExpress16.

Is this still a problem on 4.10?
