Just some things I noticed:

In the FreeBSD FAQ question 9.5 (or 8.5 in the newer version) asks how
to get the 3c503 to use the other network port.  The answer given is to
toggle the altphys flag.

I have found that in FreeBSD release 2.0 this flag is unknown to
ifconfig.  I have a 16-bit Etherlink-II (aka. 3c503) and had to use the
``link2'' flag to get the card to use the AUI port rather than the BNC
port.

Also the FAQ (Revision: $Id: FreeBSD.FAQ,v 1.1 1995/03/21 20:19:13 jkh Exp $)
still lists the older news groups (comp.os.386bsd.*), rather than the 
comp.unix.bsd.freebsd* ones.

Thanks for all the great work!
