Hi Francisco, > Anyone used a mini ATX machine with FreeBSD? It's mini ITX and yes, just did one yesterday. Small, quiet and beautiful. ;-) It was a ME6000 (fanless 600Mhz machine): http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=794445+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2003/freebsd-questions/20030928.freebsd-questions > My primary concern is the network card.

I tried a 3com 3c905 with this box and it wouldn't boot. Putting in a RTL8139 worked flawlessly. Since the box won't be doing any 'real' work, that's okay with me for now. HTH... Nico
