Description
I have installed FN8.04. My system has an Intel 2 port SFP+ 10gb nic. Although FreeBSD 8.2 supports this and has drivers, FN8.03 nor FN8.04 installs the .ko file for the ix eth interfaces. What must I do to get the drivers and have them active at boot.

You can load the driver using the instructions here: http://www.freenas.org/images/resources/freenas8.0.3/freenas8.0.3_guide.html#__RefHeading__11569_1606986686. Note that in 8.0.4, loaders has been renamed to tunables. Let us know if that works so we can close the ticket.
