- Hi folks,
-
- I'm trying to install 386BSD-0.1 on a random piece of 386 hardware.
- I have one of those WD8003E ethercard plus plugged into it. After
- fiddling with the jumpers a bit, I finally got the card to send
- packets on the wire.
-
- First strange thing is that the card is supposed to be on level 2 IRQ,
- but 386BSD insists on finding it on level 9...
-
- The official release gives the 65535 error thing when I try to
- ifconfig the card, so I tried both unofficial releases (dist.fs-noIS
- on most sites and dist.fs-WD800 on src.doc.ic.ac.uk). In both cases,
- ftp works fine to connect to a local host and list some directories
- using the cd and dir commands.
-
- However, when I try the get command, the file seems to be
- transfered, the line "226 Binary Transfer complete." appears on
- the screen and then everything freezes. Cntrl-C doesn't help either.
-
- Anybody knows a trick to help me in this case? Darn, I'm almost there...
-
- Cheers!
