I'm on it. Let the reading begin!

I think this probably should be considered the conclusion of a thread in OpenBSD Installation and Upgrading called configuring second NIC.

A few questions are left unanswered, most notably, what was wrong with the SMC 1244 TX pci NIC that I started with? It was not listed in the supported hardware for OpenBSD 4.9, which is a strong clue. It is recognized by the dc driver, but the 'MII without any PHY!' message suggests that there is some aspect of it that the driver doesn't like. R.I.P. SMC 1244 TX, you go back onto the shelf. Perhaps you will become useful at some other time. For now you are to be exiled to the island of misfit toys, the hardware boneyard.

The DLink card will be doing the job. The cable will be duct-taped in place to keep it from falling out since the retention clip doesn't work.

Any questions that arise I will be willing to address to the extent of my ability. Email is tpurvis at arkansasvalley dot net
