Re: fxp0 device - Intel NIC
Hi all,
it is a good idea to change the MAC but ...
I originally had a 10 MB (3COM) and 100MB (REALTEK)
the 10 on the internal network
and the realtek on the modem-cable.
I took out the 10 and so the realtek became connected to the internal
network and installed the fxp on the cable modem.
I am not sure there is an easy way, otherwise I'll have to fireup
Windows (dormant on my second harddisk) and re-register with my ISP.
NOTE: The funny thing is that I originally had FreeBSD 5.0 RC1 (it is OK
I knew the risks :-) ) and cvsuped to the latest code. I recompiled the
kernel to include fxp, rebooted and hell broke loose. Kernel panic on
some interrupts (I think because it shares interrupt 9 maybe) and I
could not get into the hard disk, or I did not know how to properly (I
am not expert when it comes to disasters). So I reinstalled 4.7. I need
to take notes next time.
Cheers
