Correct, the 2.5GbE Intel NICs are not supported. > needs firmware. Do I buy gigabit to USB/PCI-E LAN to get network? Not necessarily. You can also download iwx firmware from http://firmware.openbsd.org/firmware/7.0/ on another system and transfer it via USB stick. Install with "fw_update -p/path/to/file iwx". Or move the disk to another system with working net and "fw_update iwx". When you have network then run fw_update with no parameters to install cpu microcode and video driver related firmware. -- Please keep replies on the mailing list.
