Need help getting FreeBSD to run

[Paharenko Gleb]

Try to recompile your kernel with device rdp or rl
look at LINT there is a big section wich describes RealTek
RedHat found it becouse when it boots
it load modules for support hardware
If it does'n work try to port driver from
linux to FreeBSD
it isn't very difficult
