>Description:
Hello,
        I am Ashok from India. I installed FreeBSD 3.1 Release and i have one 
problem reg network.

I my Compaq (Intel Processor) System ony IRQ  3 is free. So i set my NE2000 
card to IRQ 3 and Port address 0x300 and successfully connected to Canada FTP 
Site and installed all distributions. But after rebooting after installation, my card is not 
recognised by the Kernel because of it is searching the card at port address 0x280. 
Why it becomes like that? How would i  configure the kernel to recoginse my card 
with IRQ 3 and port address 0x300. And is the Kernel supports Compaq 10/100 
TXI PCI UTP Controller ethernet cards. Then  how would i configure the kernel to 
recognise this card. Please give me fast reply.

yours faithfully,
    Ashok.

 This kind of question is much more appropriate for the
 FreeBSD-questions@freebsd.org mailing list than for a bug report.
 
 In message <19990225052300.8C0C914E79@hub.freebsd.org>you write:

 Here's how I do something similar.  I created a file called
 /kernel.conf (you can call it anything you want) with the list of
 UserConfig commands to set up the system.  Mine contains things
 like
 
 pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x320 port2 0x32c irq0 5 drq0 7 drq1 5
 disable adv0
 disable aha0
 
 but you could just as well have
 
 port ed0 0x300
 
 Then create a file called /boot/loader.rc, which says:
 
 load -t userconfig_script kernel.conf
 
 (or whatever you called your file).  That way, it'll get loaded
 every time you boot.
