Product: Base System Reporter: anonamoose <noone>
Component: amd64Assignee: freebsd-amd64 (Nobody) <amd64>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me

Version: 7.0-BETA2   
Hardware: Any   
OS: Any   

Description anonamoose 2007-11-06 07:10:04 UTC 
can not configure network

possible clue:
On the "Network Interface Information Required" menu, the option to select is displayed as:  nfe0 = NVIDIA nForce MCP Ethernet

There is no "nfe0" driver.  The option should be:
nve0 = NVIDIA nForce MCP Ethernet

Fix: 

maybe fix the typeo?
"nfe0" should be "nve0"
How-To-Repeat: try installing it

There _is_ a nfe(4) driver and it supersedes nve(4) in 7.0.  Did you try to 
use nfe0?
