I use the continue with installation and sysinstall detects all my hardware fine, it lists my PCMCIA modem as ze0 or ze1, goes by too fast to be sure. After selecting everything to install, we end up at the Select Connection type. PLIP, or SLIP on Com1, or PPP on Com1. Only choices I get. Problem here is, Com1 is *not* where my modem is and cannot link up to the web to complete the install. Any and all help or suggestions would be *greatly* appreciated.
