Hello,

I have the FreeBSD 4.0 (a full 4.4 BSD Lite Based
32-bit OS) CD-ROM (4 discs). This is my first time
installing FreeBSD.

Could you tell me if I have full support (including
autoprobing) for the DEC DE205 Ethernet ISA combo card
(usually referred as Etherworks). I have tried so far
Red Hat Linux 6.0 who claims to have full support but
I did not succeed with it even though I did my "kernel
tweaking". Same for the Caldera OpenLinux. 

From what I have read FreeBSD should support this NIC
(I have the "big FreeBSD book").

Also, would a SCSI CD-ROM be supported (NEC)?

Thanks,

Tibor Kallo
