okay, thanks. I did cvsup from stable, upto and including:
2005/01/25 16:55:44 PST
and added that to KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

I put kern.polling.enable=1 in /etc/rc.conf but have the feeling it
belongs elsewhere...
in any event, after bootup on the console I get:
vr0: watchdog timeout
vr0 inits don't seem to be working, emergency switch to polling
if_vr0 forced polling on
vr0: watchdog timeout
vr0: watchdog timeout
vr0: watchdog timeout
vr0: watchdog timeout
So I guess polling is on, vr0 is set to come up via DHCP but I get,
effectively, the same thing:
vr0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::230:1bff:feb4:99a8%vr0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
ether 00:30:1b:b4:99:a8
media: Ethernet none (10baseT/UTP)
status: active
I still get lights on the interface and that cat-5 works on the box I'm
using now.

Well for a (presumably) unrelated bios issue. My preliminary contact
with zipzoomfly said they would accept a return. Whooho!
So I think I'll be going with the Shuttle SN85G4 v3 which has
Realtek 8201BL and requires an AGP card of my own choosing...
BTW - should this, in syslog.conf work, after touch /var/log/console.log ;
chmod 600 /var/log/console.log??
console.info /var/log/console.log
I wasn't able to log the watchdog console messages.
Is there anything else I can try or report on this board?
