Re: Marvell Yukon Driver for Hp notebook??
What is needed is the line just before the Vendor, with the card and chip IDs. Then compare it against the list of cards the FreeBSD msk driver supports: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mskapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+8.0-RELEASEformat=html Line goes as follows: none2:pci0:133:0:0: class=0x02 card=0x30e8103c chip=0x45711ab rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 Wait, the (binary|proprietary?) driver for FreeBSD 7.0 is almost certainly not going to work on FreeBSD 8.0. Yeah I messed the system up completely now and attempted to recover it with FreeSBIE based on BSD 6.0 which doesn't even start for some strange reason. Can't mount the CD it says?? Any other system I've tried manages. I just performed a re-install.. nothing lost so is ok.

Re: Marvell Yukon Driver for Hp notebook??
Well I managed to go to Marvell and get the FreeBSD 7.0 x64 driver and use my USB key to get the driver into the machine: mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt/usb I then installed it using the instructions provided in the README.txt file and now I can't even boot BSD any more :-( I get total kernel panic with a complete system lockup. I'm not sure if I will be able to recover from this or if I will need a total re-install but so far BSD seems completely hosed on my machine :-( Regards, Kaya On 03/29/2010 07:20 AM, Kaya Saman wrote: Thanks for the response Warren!!

Marvell Yukon Driver for Hp notebook??
Hi guys, I've just performed a clean install of FreeBSD 8.0 on my system which is a triple boot with Win 7 and Ubuntu Linux. I did a bit of Google'ing on this subject and found various people asking the same question only for much older versions of BSD. What I have found out so far is that the driver is called msk0 I am guessing as on my other fairly similar Hp in Solaris the driver is named myk0 by the official Marvell driver. Ok different OS different name - possible and more then likely! :-) Anyhow, I just would like to know since so far my system is blind deaf and dumb, as I have no network access at all and as result no GUI as I will build it from ports; which driver I'd need and also how to install it in the machine??? With my other system and Solaris the trick was to use a USB key, of which of course the GUI was in full operation making my life a little easier then having to use the CLI to discover then mount the drive. Has anyone got any suggestions?? I have the CD1 x86_64 edition of media :-) Many thanks, Kaya ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
