>Description:
can not configure network

possible clue:
On the "Network Interface Information Required" menu, the option to select is displayed as:  nfe0 = NVIDIA nForce MCP Ethernet

There is no "nfe0" driver.  The option should be:
nve0 = NVIDIA nForce MCP Ethernet


>How-To-Repeat:
try installing it
>Fix:
maybe fix the typeo?
"nfe0" should be "nve0"

 There _is_ a nfe(4) driver and it supersedes nve(4) in 7.0.  Did you try to 
 use nfe0?
