Hello, glad to hear you are going ahead with a FreeBSD installation.
Did you read the FreeBSD handbook you were given? If so, where did you get
stuck?
Things you should look at:
* edit /etc/rc.conf for network interfaces, e.g.
ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.0.254"
(you can look in /etc/defaults/rc.conf for examples of all the settings)
* you can run /stand/sysinstall for a menu-driven frontend which will add
settings to /etc/rc.conf for you
Regards,
Brian.
