There's a package called Etherboot ("archie etherboot") which is based on Netboot and which contains a GPL'd Etherexpress 100 driver. However, I think this driver can only be built under Linux; it would require some hacking to make it compilable natively under FreeBSD. On a related note, my group (at TU Dresden) also maintains a version of the GRUB bootloader (see ) into which we have integrated (or rather, hacked) the Etherboot drivers. Again, the networking support currently can only be built under Linux.
