Why? : I need to install FreeBSD on a Thinkpad. If I proove that it (I) can be done, then the office will get me a supported pcmcia supported ethernet card. Try over the serial port, but Thinkpad's 8550 can hardly do 9600bps. It would take for ever to do this (+ I have not figure out how to prevent disconnections... timeout set very large, mtu set to 296, ...).. Thanks.
