The trouble is the PCI slots are weird, longer and sort of back to front. It says PCI 133, so I assume they changed the physical format when the bus speed was upgraded. In any event, the cards I have don't fit.
I am in the process of installing FreeBSD 4.7 on an HP Proliant DL380
G3. At the moment I am blocked by the fact that the kernel does not
recognise the network card (or rather, does not load the bge driver).
I faced the same problem with a ML370 G3. My ugly workaround was to plug in this machine another - well recognized - network card. I used an Intel EtherExpressPro10/100 (fxp) for this.
On 4.8-RC the bge driver works well.Ok, I'll see about downloading an ISO and see how that goes.
Regards.Yeah, thanks for a swift reply, even if it was bad news...
