The latest 6.x should solve your problem, and the upgrade will be somewhat easier than 7.x.

RE: FreeBSD 6.2 And ASUS P5B Deluxe
Hi, Thank for your help. It is possible to upgrade to version 7 without reinstalling? If yes, how can I do this?

My first guess would be that there are two *different* LAN controllers - one connected to the PCI bus and the other via PCI-E most likely. The one that appears in ifconfig is probably the PCI one, while the PCI-E connected one is likely a newer chip which is not supported by 6.2. Checking the documentation for the motherboard verifies this guess. Your MB has a Marvell 88E001 (connected via PCI) which is supported by FreeBSD 6.2 using the sk(4) driver. It also has a Marvell 88E056 PCI-E chip which is not supported by 6.2. The good news is that 7-CURRENT and 6-stable should both support the 88E056 NIC using the msk(4) driver. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

Do you still have one show up? What about vice-versa?
