Are there specifice chipsets that work better in FreeBSD than others?  I =
know that most MBs are optimized for Windows and often require chipset =
drivers to be loaded after installation of Windows.  Would FreeBSD work =
just fine with a MB like that where there was no FreeBSD drivers =
available?  Or am I being too paranoid?

Thanks,
Ed.
