I get this whenever I am booting without my network dongle attached. Even if you are not connected, you need the dongle in the pcmcia card or it generates a minor hardward failure. I always just ignore it, it chews for a while, then gives up gracefully, after which I have no further problems. cg. -----Original Message----- From: owner-tech_(_at_)_openbsd_(_dot_)_org [mailto:owner-tech_(_at_)_openbsd_(_dot_)_org]On Behalf Of James WorK Sent: Thursday, September 23, 1999 3:11 PM To: tech_(_at_)_openbsd_(_dot_)_org Subject: Again and again... Thanks to Theo and Niklas for the info...I succeeded to boot by disabling isadma0 (I will try applying niklas' patch later) but I got into new troubles... The Acer laptop uses a Xircom 10/100 Ethernet Card, model CE3B-100BTX (which works under the Windows98 that was preinstalled) and is recognised by the OpenBSD disk as xe0 but then, when I set a mode or try to use it, kernel sends a msg "xe0: device timeout". Anyone knows the reason of this behaviour? James WorK, jwk_(_at_)_lords_(_dot_)_com KeyID: 3072/1024/0x409C9044 Fingerprint: 7984 10FD 0460 4202 BF90 3881 CDE4 D78E 409C 9044
