All,

    I'm trying to install FreeBSD and am having some problems.  The big
problems that I am having is the recognition of my ethernet card.  I go
into the config mode on the boot up off the boot disk and change all the
sittings.  After that, I boot, and it hangs.  The ethernet card that I
have is a BOCA NE2100 compatible.  It actually says that it finds it on
boot-up, but it doesn't do anything.  Can anyone help me out with this? 
Thanks.
