Subject:   Support for a 3C575TX NIC in Snapshot 5.0-20020302-PREVIEW?

Yes, it is a cardbus card and FreeBSD has not supported it in the past...
And yes, I know I'm not supposed to use a snapshot just because my NIC is
supported in it...

But when I try to do so anyway FreeBSD's installation program is like "not
finding" it, which is strange because I found that my card is listed in
the file: 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/5.0-20020302-PREVIEW/HARDWARE.HTM

So why is it not working when it is listed in HARDWARE.HTM?
Do I have to install FreeBSD from a CD and then add support for my NIC
later on?

Please help, or else I will have to use OpenBSD (which is not that bad,
but not as nice as FBSD).
I have to use FreeBSD because I plan to do some game programming using SDL
(www.libsdl.org) once I get it running on my laptop...
