Greetings,

I purchased a 3Com EtherLink III LAN+33.6 Modem PCMCIA card only to find
that FreeBSD does not yet support the 3c562 controller.  There was a post
in hackers a day or two ago that mentioned the 3c562, it's subject line was:

sysnewconfig990609-kld990609test8.7.patch.gz

Does this patch give a 3.2-RELEASE support for the 3c562 controller?  If
so, is there any way I can get a boot floppy with this support so I can do
a network install (I don't have a CD-ROM for my laptop).

If there is no support for the 3c562, what would be a good driver for me to
start with to write a driver?  Also, where can one get a programmers guide
to 3Com's NIC chipsets?

Thanks you,
Matthew Hagerty
