Bingo. I had removed those lines from my kernel config, too long ago to remember by the time I noticed the problem. I've just put them back, compiled a new kernel, and now I have Ethernet again. Thank you for the quick diagnosis. Thanks also to Greg for his suggestion. For the benefit of future readers of the list archives, http://www.netbsd.org/support/hardware/mii.html and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHY_%28chip%29 give some idea of the role of the <foo>phy* drivers, and of why it was silly of me to remove them. Grateful regards, -- IDL
