>Description:
I found that answers for Questions 4.7.4. ``Why does my Micron system
hang at boot time?'' and 4.7.6. ``Why does my 3Com(R) PCI network card
not work with my Micron computer?'' are almost the same in the FreeBSD
FAQ. I think the second one should be compacted and replaced with a
single link to the previous answer.
