I just now succesfully could activate my PCMCIA MultiTech modem.
(I'm a newbie, too:-). Guess you'll need to grab the kernel source too
before continuing. Then you might consider getting pccard-test-960123
(or whatever version it will be when you get your version) from
ftp://bash.cc.keio.ac.jp/pub/os/FreeBSD/alpha-test, i you dare to
use an alpha version and know how to compile a new kernel.
