I have a dell LM-166 (old) with a CL-PD6729/30 BIOS. This needs the
PCCARD MFC'd Nov 11th. I also have an Inspiron 7500. This has worked
fine since 4.0.

NICs: 3Com 3CXE589ET
      LinkSys 10/100 NP100

I have never used an ISO. I would think it would be just as easy to make
the 4.4 boot floppies and see if you could mount and browse it. I will
try to answer Dell questions but I think you would get better
information from:

    mobile@freebsd.org
    freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

If the image is prior to 11/11/01 you would be much better off getting
the newer PCCARD.
