I missed the beginning of this thread but did follow the link to the Tecra
750.

I am running FreeBSD on my Tecra 740.  Everything works (even a 16 bit per
pixel XFree86 server @ 1024x768)) except for the 3com 3c589.  I booted
FreeBSD and the NVRAM in the card was destroyed but that is another story.
I am using an IBM Ethernet card without problems.

What is different about the Tecra 750 that prevents FreeBSD from running on
it?
