You shouldn't need to "get a driver" because it's the operating system's job to provide the drivers. FreeBSD comes with lots of drivers for Ethernet cards. After booting the machine with a FreeBSD system (or even after installing it), try # ifconfig -a and look for which Ethernet interfaces have been success- fully created. Missing something? Compare to the hardware specification which lists the kinds of installed network hardware (should be in your documentation provided with the server). Check those lists: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.0R/hardware.html#ETHERNET http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/CURRENT/hardware/support.html#ETHERNET You can always use "man <driver>" to find out more about drivers on an installed system, or you can use the hyperlinks in that lists to access the online documentation of the drivers. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
