It is gonna be hooked to a T1.. What is the BEST ethernet card to use for free-BSD. Also I was also wondering if I have to use the boot disk evertime to boot my machine, and if so, how do I make it so I don't have to use a book disk. I was also wondering if it supports all Adaptec and Buslogid Ultra Wide SCSI cards. And lastly, if my hardware is Plug N Play, will I have to do anything when I first boot up a newly built box? Thanx! Mike
