I've created a boot floppy and go through the hardware configuration
eliminating conflicts.  Once that completes I am able to partition the disks
(2 IDE).  I have a network NE2000 compatible card that it seems to
recognize.  I attempt to point to another PC running PC NFS server with the
drive and directory exported. The bin.* (ie. bin.aa, bin.ab) files are
located in this directory.  When I choose install using NFS, the FreeBSD PC
fails to recognize the ethernet card because it doesn't ask for TCP/IP
configuration.  It only asks that when I choose SLIP or PPP from com ports
and of course that doesn't work.

What do you think is the problem?  How can I correct it?

Thanks,
Ian D.
