Lines: 22 We can't run Interactive Unix 3.2 Version 2.0.2 with a 3com Etherlink-2 board. When you start the system with networking enabled (ie. telinit 3) and insert the ethernet connector, the system locks up. It echos characters but won't do anything else. A 3com card works fine in a Compaq on the same net. A Western Digital card works fine in the problem box. Our 3com rep thinks that the problem may be the bios on the system. It's an Intec (Schwab) clone with the A(merican) M(egatrends) I(nc) bios (version unknown). Has anyone else seen anything like this. If so, please reply via email.
