These are the only components you should have trouble with (with FreeBSD 2.1) I don't believe the 3COM PCI cards are supported, you might want to check into the SMC 9332 (10/100 Etherpower card), or any of the 10 megabit SMC's should be supported as well. NE2000 compatible cards are supported although (among several other brands). > 3 Com PCI 32 Bits Ethernet Card I think there is IDE support for drives cd-roms, but am not sure if this one is supported, (if it's SCSI it should be no problem). I think the 4x Toshiba is a SoundBlaster compatible cd-rom. It can be attached to either an 8-bit card that probably comes with it, or the interface on the soundblaster cards that support the SB compatible rom drives. > Toshiba 4X CD-Rom Anyone else have any suggestions/comments/corrections?
