Looking at the new bootloader. I gather from the code that it should be possible given that the right device support is added. Does anyone know if any nic is already supported and if so where I could find the code? If there are no nic drivers available right now is there any doc about what the bootloader is expecting the driver to look like apart from the code? Btw, I can't use nic boot roms to do it. Thanks in advance! Stephane E. Potvin Galea Network Security To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
