Are there any quirks I should be aware of? We can't seem to get the Geode ATA controller to do DMA, although according to spec it does DMA-33: it stays in PIO4, alas. Do you use a regular HD, or CF for storage? Both ;-) Have you done any network throughput/forwarding benchmarks on them? I once measured 700kbps throughput, AFAIR. If you're looking for a firewall system, you might be interested in the www.soekris.com boards.
