I've installed FreeBSD on a pentium pro machine. I have a 3c509 ethernet card.
Since I was able to do the install via ftp using the 3com card I know I had
something working properly.

However, once I've rebooted, it is as if no ethernet card is installed. I've
looked in /dev and find no /dev/e[dp][01] driver listed. Do I want ep0 or ed0?
I have found both referenced in the mailing lists.
