Description

Testing with an RT2700e card:

[2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT][root@2100-2.stevew.lan]/root: pciconf -lv
ral0@pci0:0:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x27901814 chip=0x07811814 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Ralink corp.'
    device     = 'RT2790 Wireless 802.11n 1T/2R PCIe'
    class      = network

The driver attaches and the card can be assigned:

[2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT][root@2100-2.stevew.lan]/root: ifconfig ral0_wlan0
ral0_wlan0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        ether 00:15:af:cb:93:c5
        groups: wlan
        ssid "" channel 1 (2412 MHz 11b)

        parent interface: ral0

        status: no carrier
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

However trying to bring the interface up causes a kernel panics:
