That's standard in the GENERIC kernel, or if you're using a customized kernel config, just edit it to include the miibus and fxp devices. Having obtained a kernel with appropriate support, power the machine down, put the card in and reboot. Check the dmesg output (/var/run/dmesg.boot) to see if your card has been detected. Then adjust the network settings by editing /etc/rc.conf and either reboot or run ifconfig(8) manually to configure the new network interface. sysinstall(8) isn't the tool for thins job.
