After the kern and mfsroot fl= oppies have loaded and the system starts to come up it reports an unreco= gnized chip set then once I try to run the ftp utility to load a minimum= configuration it cannot see the NIC interface i.e. it's not part of the= choices for the download. The system came with a driver disk for the B= roadcom NIC which is a 5704 gigabit interface but it only has drivers fo= r Windows, Linux, and some other OS's but nothing for FreeBSD. Accordin= g to the Dell info it is a ServerWorks GC LE Chipset with 2:1 memory int= erleaving. How do I get the system to run? I need to get it up and run= ning ASAP. Jackie
