Thanks!

Everything ok up to now!

1. patch for BCM5722 NIC worked. I modified the files and I recompiled my 
kernel.

2. ipmi works if I load manually as you suggested. But if I include in the 
kernel as "device ipmi" (for automatic loading at startup system) disks are 
not correctly dismounted. So, I wrote a shell script to do all the 
operations and I increase the timer to 120 seconds.

3. I'm sorry. My CD1 FreeBSD 7.0 was damaged. I made a new CD and no problem.
