I already have FreeBSD installed, and the only way I can find in the FAQ or the handbook is too reinstall BSD using the initial device probe to find my new network card. However, I'm fairly sure that there exists a fairly less painfuld route. Would you add a link from the FAQ page explaining how to get FreeBSD to use a particular driver or a new one you have just added or point it to already existing documentation (in the case that it does already exist) Thank you.
