Alrighdy :) The kldload if_nv.ko works when i do ifconfig and plug in
the network cable i see nv0 going from inacative to active :)

But when i edit boot/load.conf and rc.conf my sk8n amd64 keeps on
rebooting just right before showing me the bsd boot menu ?

I guess this means i need to use a boot cd to fix this ?
