   I was wondering if either of the *BSD systems support EISA NICs?  I've
   got a SMC 32T EISA card, which I tryed with Linux awhile back and it
   didn't find it, and would like to use it with one of the BSD varients.
   Currently I've got a SMC 16 bit ISA NIC in use, but would like to get
   the best throughput possible.

Dunno about the ones you mentioned, but the 3com 3c579 is supported.
