I recently got a Asus 1201N and installed FreeBSD 8.0 on it. This uses the alc (Atheros AR8132 PCIe Fast Ethernet) NIC card.
/etc/rc.conf hostname="host.test.com" ifconfig_alc0="DHCP" I noticed that if I start up the computer with the network cable unplugged it will hang at the following spot. This happens right after installing meaning I can install the OS and have the NIC get a DHCP IP address and then when rebooting I unplug the network cable and it hangs. Setting hostname: host.test.com So, this must mean that it finishes running /etc/rc.d/hostname, but I'm not sure what comes next in the boot process.
