I am, however haveing trouble finding a mother board with support listed in the hardware database. (Mostly for onboard audio) Is it reasonable to belive that these audio devices will follow a normal spec, and the FreeBSD will run them? Is there a good possiblity that if they are not listed in the hardware.txt that they will not work at all? What about onboard ethernet? Thank you, Anthony DeMatteo
