The EPIAs seem to have slightly flaky ATA support, though. Ah yes, there are some howtos out there how to put FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a Soekris net4801; so it obviously seems to work. Could someone with an net4801 please write an article for inclusion in the Handbook? It would be great to have everything in one place :) Thanks, -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
