Warner,
	the Xircom rem56g i have is the 16 bit version and it seems i'm
having more luck with 4.7/4.8.

So far my results are: 

4.7 Works fine as far as i can tell. installed fine from FTP using the
Xircom (needed to remove conflicts at the kernel config.)

4.8rc1 also seems happy, installing as i write.

5.0-RELEASE  wouldnt initialise my xircom (known issue apparently)

5.0-CURRENT-20030314-JPS  same as 5.0-RELEASE 

Still it looks like i have 4.7/4.8 working now, although I did completely
repartitioned the disk as my attempt to multiboot using lilo failed with a
rather bizare message, may try to multiboot it now I have freebsd running
though.

Thanks for your suggestion and help
