I've managed to boot with 2.1.7.1, and all goes well except the enet card is not "found" i.e. I can't install via ftp. Is there a different boot disk I can use for this set up? Or what options do I need to fiddle with in the setup of the current boot disks. Any help / experience with this sort of thing can only help :) I'm familiar with setting up FreeBSD on desktops...
