I'm trying to build a Dell 1750 with 5.1.  After the kern and mfsroot fl=
oppies have loaded and the system starts to come up it reports an unreco=
gnized chip set then once I try to run the ftp utility to load a minimum=
 configuration it cannot see the NIC interface i.e. it's not part of the=
 choices for the download.  The system came with a driver disk for the B=
roadcom NIC which is a 5704 gigabit interface but it only has drivers fo=
r Windows, Linux, and some other OS's but nothing for FreeBSD.  Accordin=
g to the Dell info it is a ServerWorks GC LE Chipset with 2:1 memory int=
erleaving.  How do I get the system to run?  I need to get it up and run=
ning ASAP.

Jackie
