You're question doesn't make a lot of sense on the face of it. Why on earth would you either WANT or NEED to install FreeBSD on a system with no ethernet adapter? If it's a matter of money, I have at least a half dozen old 10/100 cards lying around collecting dust. If you send me your address and if it is in North America, I'll send you one via snail-mail. Or you can probably get one faster off eBay for about a buck and a half. Regards, rfg P.S. Even if you're constrained by hardware... e.g. no PCIe slots... you can always get yourself some supported USB ethernet adapter. I don't know of anything worth owning that could run FreeBSD and that doesn't have at least a couple of USB ports. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
