I'm trying to install  2.2-RELEASE via a ppp connection and the boot floopy
doesn't recognize my Supra PnP modem.  Does anyone have a boot floopy
that already contains the PnP patch ?  Or do I need to somehow boot
DOS or Windows to set the IRQ of the modem and then do a warm boot
into FreeBSD ?

Thanks,  please also carbon-copy replies to address  pyu@psepd.carswell.com
