No need to actually install FreeBSD, just insert
the boot floppy and enter -v, when asked for the 
kernel file (and options).

You will of course have to write down the line 
identifying an unknown PCI device (class network, 
sub-class Ethernet), if the chip happens to NOT
be supported. If it is uspported, well, then there 
is nothing to be done :)
