As a newbie, I am trying to follow the directions in the Handbook for
setting up my FreeBSD box as a gateway for my ADSL connection.  In doing
so, I have run up against a wall with the step where I am supposed to put
new devices in the copy of my kernel and recompile it.  I get to the "make
depend" part and each time, it starts to do the make, but doesn't complete
it.  The last line of the make is:

../../dev/xe/if_xe.c:138: card_if.h: No such file or directory
mkdep: compile failed
***Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/sys/compile/MYKERNAL

It appears I am missing a file in the ../../dev/xe folder, but I am unsure
how to go about getting this file and placing it there.  Or, I may be doing
something else wrong that I don't know about.  I only commented out lines
in the MYKERNAL file that were obviously not in my system like pcmcia stuff
and scsi stuff.  And I did follow the directions for creating devices for
my network cards (I think).  My devices under the pci ethernet nics section
look like:

device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 10 iomem 0xd8000
device ed1 at isa? port 0x300 irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 

Any suggestions?  Do I just need to add that file that it says doesn't
exist or is something I am doing in MYKERNAL causing it to call that file
when it shouldn't need to?  

Help, I'm drowning BSD newbie lake!
