	I just installed FreeBSD 1.1.5 on my computer.  Everything seemed to go fine 
untill I began installing my ethernet card (Allied Telesis AT1700).  I tried 
both through "configure" and manually through "ifconfig ed0 <ip.address>", but 
both returned the following:

ioctl (SIOCGIFFLAGS): no such interface

Afterwards the ethernet card wouldn't run (ftp couldn't locate host).  Does 
this mean FreeBSD does not support my card?  Should I enter something other 
than ed0?  Any help greatly appreciated,
