Hi,
We managed to successfully apply the following patch for the Broadcom
BCM95751M Gigabit ethernet controller from the NetBSD kernel mailing
list then rebuilt G4U from source.
Performance seems very slow but this may be because it is the old CVS
NetBSD tree from the G4U web page.
The other option was to use Ghost4Linux that Michael Setzer emailed
the list about which
does detect the card correctly and it operates and the full speed.
ftp://amd64gcc.dyndns.org/g4l-0.17pp.iso
We have also found that clearing the Windows pagefile on exit and
temporaily disabling hibernation help reduce the size as well as the
time it take's to image.

Hi Hubert,
I tried the G4U on IBM ThinkPad T43p but no network. After issuing the
command ifconfig -a, the status saying that "no network". I think the
problem is the G4U kernel do not have proper drive for the network
card
"Broadcom NetXtreme Fast and Gigabit Ethernet". I tried on T40p
with Intel
Pro 100 network card and it worked.
