I'm having a difficult time getting ethernet established on my SE/30.
I have an Excelan EtherPort SE/30, and am running the recent snapshot.
I'm afraid I just don't know where to start. I've read through the
FAQs, but still don't have enough information to get started.
As far as I know the interface would be ex0. My dmesg tells me it
is not configured (how do I configure it?). Every time I try to
add it using ifconfig I get some SIOCGIFFLAGS message. Can anyone
give me a summary of what I need to do here? I'm vaguely aware that
I will need to establish it at a physical address and get it in my
ifconfig somehow .. but as you can see, I don't know NEARLY enough.
Thanks,
Mark
