Hello, I am a newbie to freebsd, I want to clarify something before I get into using it. I plan to put freebsd5 on a sun e250, this is a pci based ultrasparc machine, but at the same time, this machine has a non-sun hardware, which is a network card thats originally for x86 machine. This card is working probably under solaris w/ some non-official driver, & is supported under linux/x86. My question is, will this card, intel fastethernet 100, or 3com590 work under freebsd/ultrasparc w/ some tiny tinkering? and also, can i compile freebsd's kernel like linux? thanks Alan.
