I have recently been struggling to get NAS4Free to work. After some initial problems which I managed to solve, I have now come accross some driver problems. The Ethernet card isn't working, because there's no driver available for my notebook (Packard Bell EasyNote R3400) on FreeBSD .
I have managed to extract the driver .SYS and .IFO files for both my wireless and ethernet cards, and I tried to use ndisgen to get it to work, but after every attempt, I get the message "can't find kernel source tree"
Can anyone help me figuring out how I can convert the drivers, or can anyone convert them for me?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Ethernet and Wireless drivers
In general a notebook is not the best option to do a NAS because it have no SATA ports to conect Data disk, so perhaps is best option to you do not use time on it and reuse a old desktop PC.
12.1.0.4 - Ingva (revision 7743) on SUPERMICRO X8SIL-F 8GB of ECC RAM, 11x3TB disk in 1 vdev = Vpool = 32TB Raw size , so 29TB usable size (I Have other NAS as Backup)

Re: Ethernet and Wireless drivers
for note books & net books
one has to be the equipment lottery winner
there is no opportunity to change cards to one with a compatible chip
I use a dell mini 9 and 2 usb sticks to demonstrate NAS4Free
one for the embedded boot, one formatted UFS for the data.

however the SD card slot is unusable/incompatible
missed the power ball on that one
