That board is really new, so I would guess you have a new network
controller with a PCI ID FreeBSD doesn't know about yet. It's a pretty
common occurrence, especially with Intel NICs. Post the complete output
of `pciconf -lv` (preferrably as an attached text file) and someone will
see if this is the case.
OK, this part is kinda different, it has a MAC thats the same as the E1000
boards but the PHY is 10/100, so guess what..... :)
You get to use the em driver, not the fxp.
The 6.1 RELEASE may not yet have support, but since they merged my
6.0.5 and 6.1.4 drivers with the STABLE tip of tree if you get that latest
driver it should work.
If not let me know,
