HEllo,
I'm installing freebsd 5.0 from the boot discs... Everything goed fine, but my network card 's driver is not attached, now I have a disc with my network card and on that disc there's a map "freebsd" in that map There are 3 files:
IF_FET.C
if_fetreg.h
readme.txt
-> they are attached to this email
Now how can I make my ethernet work so I can install freebsd with ftp?

Installation:
1. copy the source codes if_fet.c and if_fetreg.h to /sys/pci directory,
#cp if_fet.c /sys/pci
#cp if_fetreg.h /sys/pci
2. modify /sys/conf/files, add the following line
pci/if_fet.c optional fet device-driver
3. modify /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC, add the following line
device fet0
4. compile the kernel,
#cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
#cp GENERIC MYKERNEL
#/usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
#cd /usr/src/sys/compile/MYKERNEL
#make depend
#make
#make install
5. reboot the system,
#reboot
6. bind your card to an IP address
#ifconfig fet0 ${IPADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask ${NETMASK}
7. now, you should be able to ping local network.
