Sun smb quad giga lan not supported

hello

i am new on pfsense/bsd

i have reg on a second ISP and tried to install pfsense on a box

amd 2100+
1go ram
160 go IDE

mb has one 10/100 nic and i have added a sun smb quad giga

the installer has asked for vlan and listed one unic nic and didn't let me install pfsense
launching the nic detector had the same issue

so i have put a linux installer and it has detected the nics has national semi conductor DP83065 [saturn]

i have read the capable hardware list and some sun quad nics were listed there but mine wasn't recognized

is there a simple way to fix the situation

thanks

Linux != FreeBSD

What version of pfSense did you try?
