Great work on the Howto - I've used it to setup a test environment and so far everything is working well. I recommend it to others who are looking for a quick start guide to automated network installs of FreeBSD. Now - I've checked through the man pages of the fxp driver but I didn't find an answer to this. Is there a way to control the NIC settings from FreeBSD? Specifically, I'd like to switch the boot setting on the NIC from "Network" to "Local" after the install is completed. Is this possible without human intervention? Is there a plan for this functionality? If not I can try write something myself.
