>Description:
This machine has an Intel EtherExpress PRO/10 ISA (ex) card installed, set to IO 0x210, IRQ 9 (it would not probe successfully in PnP mode, FWIW). When I boot the machine with the Ethernet cable attached and link good, the card and driver work fine, but when I boot without it connected, I get this:

ex0: <Intel Pro/10+> at port 210-21f irq 9 on isa0
ex0: Manual config, 16-bit bus, board id 0x203, stepping 0x0
ifmedia_set: no match for 0x25/0xffffffff
panic: ifmedia_set


>How-To-Repeat:
Install an ex-compatible ISA Ethernet card, set as above, and try booting with the Ethernet cable disconnected.

 I'm pretty sure you've got the card set to the 'auto detect cable' under
 the cable settings menu in the DOS config tool.
