And people are working on it. For now, the best way I know of is to look at the latest revision of the GENERIC config file: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/alpha/conf/GENERIC The installation kernels are built from a configuration which is based on this file. More devices than those listed in GENERIC actually work (adaptec PCI scsi, Tigon gigabit ethernet, etc). We also need a LINT.
