From: Stacey Son <s...@freebsd.org> To: bug-follo...@freebsd.org, g.zhengm...@gmail.com Cc: Subject: Re: kern/134079: [em] "em0: Invalid MAC address" in FreeBSD-Current ( 8.0) Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 13:18:35 -0500 I have the same, exact problem with FreeBSD-Current running on VMWare Fusion (64-bit, 2 virtual procs, 4096MB Memory allocation, Mac Pro host). Running 7.2 on this same configuration there is no problem with the e1000 (if_em) driver. Upgrading to -current I get the following error (in dmesg): em0: Invalid MAC address device_attach:em0 attach returned 5 My work around is to edit the "vmx" config file on the host for the virtual image and change: ethernet0.virtualDev="e1000" to: ethernet0.virtualDev="vlance" so the virtual machine emulates an AMD Lance instead. -stacey. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
