Hi, Alex!
I had the same problem (i'm still a newbie). You need to compile your own Kernel.
I'll just give you a nice walk-thru, on how doing that. I hope you installed
the sources for Kernel and all that stuff...
1. Login as user "ROOT"
2. cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf <- That where the Kernelsource is located
3. cp GENERIC MyOwnKernel <- Make a copy of your generic Kernel (GENERIC is all uppercase)
4. ee MyOwnKernel [or] vi MyOwnKernel <- depends on what is your favorite editor
5. search for "ie0" and set irq 10 to 11
and change 0xMyPort you to your required settings
6. /usr/sbin/config MyOwnKernel <- Setup your Kernel
7. make depend <- the regular make-stuff
8. make
9. make install
10. reboot your system
If everything goes correct, you'll experience the joy of the net. In the case
you actually FORGOT to install sources, when installing from a FTP-server,
you got a serious problem. I had to completly reinstall FreeBSD =(
Anyway...
Maybe some other guys can give tips on this...
