I actually installed from CD and won't recognize my NIC.  I selected the ed0
NIC from sysinstall because I wasn't sure what I was supposed to use for my
card (Kingston KNE100TX - dc(4)).  When I got to the configuration screen,
there was no Ethernet card listed.  I am confused on what to do next.  What
I'm haring is that I have to install miibus, then I have to edit
/etc/rc.conf.  Do I have that right?

Thanks again,

Thomas Connolly

Guess so.  So, he's trying to do an FTP install, and it
won't recognize his NIC?
