And with a verbose boot (boot -v during startup) we can find out the
chipset and such to add support if needed. I did that recently for one
of the fxp cards. (More work might be needed if it doesn't work with the
current standard instruction set).
If boot -v does not show the output or when something goes wrong pciconf -vl
will also list the verbose pci configuration for you (which might be even
better then the boot -v option actually).
Thanks & Cheers,
