This is an install problem so I can't get "uname -a" *snif* ;-)
>Description:
I'm attempting to install the recently announced 4.0-Release.
I'm doing this to a Dell Lattitude CPi/266 with a 3C589D PCMCIA 
ethernet card. The setup portions of the installation seem to go just
fine, once the actual download begins it seems that a few packets will
come through and then the interface dies and no more data can pass.

I don't know if this helps but I've tried the install from both
ftp.freebsd.org and ftp3.freebsd.org and the attempts should be from
the IP below.

Name:    trurl.cs.unm.edu
Address:  198.59.151.139

The card does work under W98 and does contact our DHCP server 
successfully to get the IP info. necessary so I don't think that
it is a hardware failure.
>How-To-Repeat:
It repeats everytime that I try this. Other than trying an install
with the available floppies and a 3C589D card I'm not sure how
to repeat this.
