	The information I got from doing a uname -s is:
	FreeBSD systest.infinitecnetworks.com 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD
4.0-RELEASE #1: Wed Nov 15 14:43:51 CST 2000
root@systest.infinitecnetworks.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/SYSTEST	i386

	As you can tell, I have recompiled the kernel (it didn't work before
that, either).  I made sure I had the miibus support loaded when I did this
as well.

> Any suggestions?  I've looked in the handbook and through various FAQs to
