Take a look at ftp://ftp.freesoftware.com/.0/FreeBSD/branches/4.0-stable/src/etc/pcca rd.conf.sample to see if your PCMCIA cards are supported. I'm assuming your NIC is a PCMCIA device. Also, http://www.cse.ucsc.edu/~dkulp/fbsd/laptop.html has some good info on laptop compatibility, though your mileage may vary. And as always, batteries not included. -Otter > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of > degraz@planethalflife.com > Sent: Friday, March 02, 2001 9:25 AM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: laptop installation > > > I am installing FreeBSD 4.1.1 on a newer laptop with a network card, > is there any way I can get the card to work in FreeBSD?
