I hope I sent this question to the good posting. I work in a research
environnement and one of my project was to install different kinds of OS's
for testing. I am using emulators, so I don't need hundred of computers in
the lab. For now I have installed FreeBSD 2.2.0 and up in a producted
called VMWare, and it is working fine.
My question is: I have installed FreeBSD 2.1.X but I can't get  the network
up because the if_lnc_p.c driver for pci amd network cards is not
supported. But was supported starting version 2.2.0. I would like to know
if somebody can tell me how to integrate a new driver in a old version of
FreeBSD or tell me of a web site that can help me. I would really
appreciate anybody's help.

Thank you
