Hello, I have an Acer TravelMate 4060 laptop with FreeBSD 6.1 running on it. I have Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG wireless network card which I use successfully. I have the following iwi related entries in rc.conf:
## Intel Wireless Adapter settings iwi_enable="YES" iwi_interfaces="iwi0" iwi_mode="bss" ifconfig_iwi0="ssid **** DHCP" This used to bring up my iwi0 interface at boot time and I had a working internet connection after the machine had booted. However, this morning I did "make world" (attaching cvsup files for the kernel and ports for completeness). The iwi firmware was not loaded at boot time and the following messages are given: $ dmesg | grep iwi iwi0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG> mem 0xb0101000-0xb0101fff irq 17 at device 4.0 on pci6 iwi0: Reserved 0x1000 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xb0101000 iwi0: bpf attached iwi0: Ethernet address: 00:13:ce:0c:45:a1 iwi0: bpf attached iwi0: bpf attached iwi0: [MPSAFE] iwi0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps iwi0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps iwi0: Please load firmware I have to manually load the firmrare invoking the following commands as root: # iwicontrol -i iwi0 -d /boot/firmware -m bss # ifconfig iwi0 up Could you please advise me how I can load automatically the firmware during boot time?
