How do I know this would work with FreeBSD and/or NetBSD? I could switch the hard drives between the two computers, or put one hard drive in a Sabrent enclosure: IDE and SATA inside, USB 2.0 and eSATA outside interface. I could also buy a USB-to-Ethernet adapter, don't know how these things work under FreeBSD. But I would still have to plug into the 25 ft Ethernet cable that goes across the floor and creates a tripping hazard, though I haven't tripped over it yet in over two years. I already have one wired and two wireless ways of connecting to the Internet, think they might all work with Linux but really need to test them. Again I seem to have lost the Internet connection, despite "ifconfig" showing lo0: flags=8049 metric 0 mtu 16384 options=600003 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 nd6 options=21 rsu0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 2290 options=1 ether 00:13:33:a2:86:f0 nd6 options=29 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g status: associated wlan0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500 ether 00:13:33:a2:86:f0 inet 192.168.0.101 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 nd6 options=29 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet OFDM/54Mbps mode 11g status: associated ssid Maclura_pomifera channel 8 (2447 MHz 11g) bssid a0:f3:c1:f9:39:7a country US authmode WPA2/802.11i privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF AES-CCM 2:128-bit txpower 0 bmiss 7 scanvalid 60 bgscan bgscanintvl 300 bgscanidle 250 roam:rssi 7 roam:rate 5 protmode CTS roaming MANUAL uname -a shows FreeBSD amelia4 11.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #8 r267220M: Sun Jun 8 17:16:53 UTC 2014 root@amelia4:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SANDY11NC amd64 Tom
