I want to setup inexpensive FreeBSD box, and I am looking at
Asus A7N266-VM motherboard, which has good price/performance
ratio, and has positive reviews coming from the Windoze world.

It uses Nvidia nForce 220D chipset, which integrates video
adapter, audio ( i810 compatible ) and seemingly exotic
Ethernet MAC.

Did anybody tried to install FreeBSD on such motherboard?
With success?

How difficult would it be to adapt Linux driver for the MAC
( provided in source by Nvidia ) to FreeBSD? I know, I can
get supported NIC for less than $15, but why not to use the
stuff which is there?

Feliks
