I'm trying to install 2.1.0 FreeBSD on a Gateway 2000 486/66.

I have a Kingston 10/BT ethernet card with I/O 0x300, IRQ 12
and DMA 6. I'm using a floppy to boot the system and it doesn't
seem to recognize my LAN card. I've tried all the listed 
combinations from the -c visual setup config. No luck yet.

I want to enventually  do a FTP install of the new release. 
Do I need to buy one of the listed/tested Ethernet Cards ?
Has anyone had any luck with the Kingston Ethernet Cards ?

Thanks in advance.
