Excellent! Thank you. This dmesg is very helpful. We now know you are running 5.1-release on the i386 architecture, and that your Network Interface is an bge(4) Broadcom Gigibit Ethernet device assigned to device bge0. It is very hard to tell from what has been posted, but it appears that you may have solved your network issues on your own.

It appears you have XDM configured for login via X, rather than starting X after logging in to the console. That's fine -- you just need to have an .xsession file, instead of the .xinitrc file. You can have two names for the same file, using the ln(1) command to create a hard link:
Code:
$ cd
$ ln .xinitrc .xsession

I don't understand what you are trying to say, here. Your dmesg shows a single IDE/PATA drive, assigned to device wd0. Are you referring to mounting of its partitions, or, are you referring to attaching USB drives such as memory sticks?

I don't understand.

Thanks.
Only the most recent release and its prior release are supported. That is currently 5.1 and 5.0. More details on the development cycle, release numbers, and the various "flavors" of OpenBSD including -stable can be found in FAQ 5.1. Spending time with the FAQ will really help. Really.
