Yes, there should be.  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.

Cheers,

Drew
