hello,
Just an input to let pilgrims installing freebsd on laptops know:
1. 3com589D-TP is not 3com589D
2. Support for ethernet-pcmcia is in GENERIC kernel using the
zp0 driver and 3com589D card.
3.boot.flp installs GENERIC kernel, complete supprt for wcd0c
toshiba cdrom is present, internel modem can be linked to /dev/modem
as /dev/cuaa1
4. mouse should be psm0-not keyboard mouse,/dev/mouse->/dev/cuaa0
5.XF86 works perfectly at 800x600 millions of colors, no need for
Xaccererated LX software(saves $200.00).
In short FreeBSD v2.2.7 can convert a low cost Laptop into a
SuperComputer!
