[Would be really nice to get an answer here, because I could reproduce it, 
after no suggestion came in]

All this still goes with trying to get Realtek 8211cl working, in cooperation 
with Winson Wang of SUN (Zhen.W at sun.com), who had sent me a driver for this 
chipset to try out.

What I did today, with the help of Winson (nge_64_mcp78 is the driver he 
prepared):

1. Fresh install of nv110, on real, blank hardware, from DVD, reboot
2. cp nge_64_mcp78 /kernel/drv/amd64/nge, reboot
3. add
nge "pci10de,760"
to /etc/driver_aliases, reboot
4. ifconfig nge0 plumb
5. ifconfig -a
6. ifconfig nge0 dhcp
(Until here, everything looked okay)
But: there is no /etc/resolv.conf, dhcp has not produced one.
7. added /etc/resolv.conf manually, and could 'dig'.
(But still, I could not browse, probably due to some /etc/nsswitch?)
8. clicked Adiminstration->Network->Automatic, reboot

Now it hangs after 'Mounting ZFS filesystems: (5/5)
forever. I can still press the 'Enter' key, though.
Another reboot brings no change.

And, again, Failsafe fails with 'Error 15: File not found'!
Whereas the 'normal boot' simply hangs.

Uwe,
who hasn't done anything else, a second time, fresh install, and hits the same 
failure
