Hi there,

I try to install the FreeBSD 8.0-Release on the above mentioned board.

But I get a "driver not found". The VEN:DEV values are 8086:10F0 REV_05.
I have found this values also in the file /sys/dev/e1000/e1000_hw.h
So I think that the device is known.

I am not able to install another NIC because there is no free PCI/PCIe 
port. But I think that I am able to install FreeBSD with the 9-current 
sources on another board and switch the Harddisk back to the DFI board.

What else could I do?

/gT/
P.S. Why didn't tell me FreeBSD what the VEN:DEV values of the unknown 
device are? I had to install "the other os" to get this values
