> 1. Is the 3com 3c590 (PCI Etherlink III Combo) supported? Yes, at least as patches to -current. It might work without any patches if you disable "plug-n-play". Probably you will need -current or at least the driver from -current to make it work. > 2. Instead of reinstalling from scratch over my 2.1-STABLE (~September > SUP) with 2.1 release, I simply sup'ed the stable tree over yesterday, > did a make world, and rebuilt the kernel. Am I running (the functional > equivalent of) 2.1-RELEASE? Your /etc directory will need to be updated by hand. Since it contains a lot of configuration stuff in a lot of files, this will take a bit of effort on your part. Otherwise, yes, you are running the release equivalent.
