Read the *Freaking Manual

*usually replaced a worse word, beginning with F

bleh

so much to read

so time consuming

To display the configuration for the network interfaces on your system, enter the folowing command:

% ifconfig
dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 00:a0:cc:da:da:da
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
dc1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
ether 00:a0:cc:da:da:db
media: Ethernet 10baseT/UTP
status: no carrier
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

Uh, good luck with FreeBSD:

Posted on the FreeBSD manual
A minimal installation of FreeBSD takes as little as 100 MB of disk space.

Eviltechie: Ewww, is that like, the process necessary for Ethernet configuration? It seems like it'd take like, two days, just to get the OS running at a minimal capacity, if it keeps going at that pace.
