I hate being the bearer of bad news, but FreeBSD V4 does not support any 32-bit (CardBus) cards. It is limited to 16-bit cards. Work is in progress to support 32-bit cards in V5.0, but that won't be out for several months. If you are willing to live on the bleeding edge, install CURRENT. It is the development branch of FreeBSD and is the code which will develop into V5.0. It does currently have some support for 32-bit cards if you use the NEWCARD code. But it is NOT ready for prime-time. Current is meant for developers and is NOT very stable. In general, don't plan to use 32-bit cards with FreeBSD before the end of the year. R.
