  (New Dell Poweredge T110, X3430 Xeon, 4GB 1333MHz ). Machine replaces 
operating freeBSD 8.1 Dell 686 machine with active Internet connection.

When trying to load freeBSD 8.1 from a boot only i386 ISO disc, which 
installed with no problems on Dell 686 Pentium machine, new machine is 
not accepting network configuration loaded via Sysinstall and cannot 
find freeBSD download site.

Dell Support refused help, stating "we do not support freeBSD".

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike
