I've just bought IBM xSeries346 server. There was no problem with installing FreeBSD 5.3, but problem is with LAN card - BCM5721 (I think, reseller told me this name). Is there any possibility to run this card?
You have to install a 5-STABLE or manually get following files
src/sys/dev/bge/* src/sys/dev/mii/miidevs src/sys/dev/mii/brgphy.c
and recompile kernel. without those two mii files, you can only run 100-baseTX.
From where i must download these files?
I've just made cvsup on my workstation (*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5) and got:
So you updated your source to 5-STABLE.
saucepan# pwd /usr/src/sys/dev/bge saucepan# ls -al total 186 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 9 12:51 . drwxr-xr-x 155 root wheel 2560 Mar 9 12:53 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 101313 Mar 2 21:29 if_bge.c -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 81011 Mar 2 11:08 if_bgereg.h saucepan#
Looks like what I have here. Follow the directions near the bottom of /usr/src/UPDATING to update the system from source:
"To rebuild everything and install it on the current system."
When you're done you should be running 5-STABLE (currently 5.4-PRERELEASE).
