Hello Gurus out there.
Well, I'm administering a box running FreeBSD 2.1.7 for our
institute and the system is still running with a poor 
SMC Ethernet board. In the next few weeks we want to exchange
the board against a PCI type and we need to obtain 10/100MBit
ethernet boards. I can purchase on a cheap condition 3COM
3c90x XL combo-ethernetboards but I'm not sure whether this 
board type is supported by the kernel or not. If anybody has
ideas, tips, hints or maybe solutions (patches??) please contact me
under one of the following email addresses.

Best wishes and many thanks in advance
