Two problems:

	1)  System will not recognize the ethernet card (3-com 3c509).
	    How can I reconfigure without re-installing the
 	    entire os?

	2)  Loading Xfree hangs while extracting files

Setup:
	486-66
	Micronix MB
	16 Meg RAM
	Pheonix BIOS
	Adeptec 1540 B SCSI (CHINON II CD)
	2 HD (IDE)
	Cirrus graphics card

Everthing works (installed from FreeBSD 2.0 CD) except the above problems.

any suggestions?


thanks in advance,

Greg
