FreeBSD v.4.10 could be named as obsolete today.
The 5.5 version is being known as legalcy.
Nowadays you should use 6.2, or wait for 7.0

Yeap, very specific cards, ie.see http://www.zapatatelephony.org/ for 
some history, or 
http://www.digium.com/en/products/hardware/digitalcards.php for some new 
stuff.
You should say what kind of connection you have from you telephone 
company analog (plain coper lines) or digital (T1/E1).

While reading this page you could see that ISA zapata-based cards could 
work with older bsd-releases, but this is a history (like linux 2.2.x).

No, you don't have to. But this is rather asterisk-specific list.
