> hey,
> While installing FreeBSD4.5 from CD on my system, I could not install the
driver for the ethernet. After installing the freeBSD, I checked "ifconfig"
and found no entry for the ethernet. Well, since i did not install any
driver for ethernet during installation of FreeBSD its obvious that there is
no information about the ethernet in "ifconfig".
> My question is : how can i install the ethernet driver and also how can i
find the proper driver for it.
> Thanks in advance.
