I've unintentionally installed FreeBSD 2.2.2 from the ground up off a
completely empty drive (damn you, makefs), and I've noticed that some
things in /etc have changed. Most notably, I can't seem to find where I
activate the ed0 interface, or tell it which IP to take. I saw something
promising in /etc/rc.conf, but I haven't been able to get the syntax
correct. Where is this information to be added?
(This is the first time I've had to do this - normally I install over
ethernet and set up PPP, but this time I installed over PPP and am setting
up ethernet.)
