NIC doesn't get detected on boot

Hi –

I’m using QNX 6.1.0 and trying to install a 3COM 3C509 card. It worked
perfectly under linux and windows but QNX can’t find it for some reason, and
its listed in the supported hardware list. No entry for en0 appears in the
/dev/ directory, so so far I’m basically up a creek without a paddle. Any
idea where I should start? Should I just try to get a new NIC? If a
plain-jane 3COM card won’t work, what will??!?!?!

Thanks!

Make sure you have patch A.

I know there was problem with the 3C509cx.
