While most things in "userland" will be identical, the kernel and associated infrastructure are very different. The net/nvnet port is a nForce2 MCP Ethernet driver. This builds a FreeBSD wrapper around part of NVidia's Linux driver. The tricky part will be getting this installed without the network. David
