New Install On Sl-c3200, PLANEX GW-CF11X failed Options

[hus]

Good day everyone

i just installed openbsd on sl-c3200 (the easy way i'm using cacko 1.23 rom)

from the console i unmounted /dev/hda3 then start (fdisk /dev/hda) and deleted the FAT partition then i added 1GB FAT partition type [c], then the rest of the disk type [a6] OpenBSD

after that i mkfs.vfat the /dev/hd3 and mount it to /mnt/hda3 and switch to there and grabed all the packages of the snapshot (base39.tgz ..etc) using the wget ( i did that to use disk installation, i installed the openbsd ipk on cacko and just followed the installation proccess

my problem now when i plug my wireless card it gives me this error

CODE

wi0 at pcmcia1 function 0 "PLANEX COMMUNICATIONS INC., PLANEX GW-CF11X Wireless CF Card, " port 8x0/64, irq 137
wi0: init failed
: unable to read station address

any idea guys what todo now? do i have to install the wireless driver (Hostap) or firmware? if so where to get it from? the GW-CF11X card has prism3 chipset, and yeah by the way since i'm new to openBSD where to tweak make file? i mean the compiler option to use xscale insted of arm optimization

thanks

OK, using the instructions on that site I have just upgraded my WLAN CF card firmware from 1.8.0 to 1.8.4 and it still works perfectly. Remember to follow the instructions exactly though and disable the Firmware download in the driver options.

Ok, i have searched all around and i couldnt find the STA (secondary) firmware for this card, it's NCID is 0x801d, what i have found i should use a firmware like this sm10804.hex or any smxxxx.hex firmware which i couldnt find. the primary one i have it (pm010102.hex).

The funny thing here the ( Senao NL-2511CF ) has the same NCID which means it's identical to GW-CF11X and it's supported in OpenBSD.

i was looking in openbsd for how this card been implemented the firmware or where should put GW-CF11X firmware in OpenBSD, so far no luck :/

No, my card is the Senao NL-2511CF, it originally had SF010800.HEX, I updated to SF010804.HEX.

Did you load the utility and simply check the firmware file name that the card was using?
