This is exactly my situation, any ideas??
"If his NIC is *not* there when it's time to configure and start
the d-load, it's a hardware/BIOS issue, or somebody's broke
sysinstall(8).....or is there another option I'm missing?"

OK, he's got a Kingston (generally dc driver) and is trying
to do sysinstall and d-load over NIC.

IME it doesn't matter what you pick in the "configuration"
section of sysinstall --- whatever's first should work, because
those are just old nonPNP ISA NIC drivers.

After doing "kernel configuration in full-screen visual/CLI/skip"
then sysinstall does an initial device probe, and when you get
to "configure interface," it should be there.

For the record, device miibus is enabled in -GENERIC kernel.

If his NIC is *not* there when it's time to configure and start
the d-load, it's a hardware/BIOS issue, or somebody's broke
sysinstall(8).....or is there another option I'm missing?
