I have a compaq evo n800 laptop with dual boot: win xp (needed at work) & linux gentoo (fully working, for my pleasure). Now, willing to substitute linux with FreeBSD I'm cautiously checking if FreeBSD will work with my hardware as linux does using as a test the freesbie cd distribution, configuring it and saving my specific configuration to a usb mass storage automagically mounted as /mnt/dos.1. Now it happens that - after having read the somewhat fragmented documentations on wireless cards setup - I'm unable to set up my Cisco 350 wireless pcmcia card (I'm sure it is supported!). I have put in rc.conf pccard_enable="YES" pccard_mem="DEFAULT" pccard_ifconfig="DHCP" saved the configuration files into the usb mass storage and rebooted. Even though I can find in rc.conf the pccard stuff as I set it, Freesbie goes on complaining pccard_enable: not found the same error pops up if I restart the /etc/rc.d/pccard What shall I do?
