Hi!

I'm a complete newbie to FreeBSD. 
I just installed 3.0-RELEASE.
Trying to configure the network adapter manually, I write:
ifconfig ep0 <IP-adress>
The error message is:
"ep0 does not exist"

What to do?

A related question is about network drivers:
Using UserConfig, I see a list of network drivers, but there is no Realtek driver.
I'm using a Realtek 8029 PCI adapter. 
Currently, I'm running NT, and the nic is working fine on IRQ 11, I/O port EF80-EF9F

Are there any substitutes for this driver, or do I have to rebuild the Kernel?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Juan Kuuse
