Hi Phillip, all, We're just about to roll out a system based on ICP's Wafer-4821. The 4821 is a 486dx100, with 4 16550's, Realtek 8091 LAN, pc104, 1 72pin simm slot, you can get it with 4mb onboard but its not quite enough (for our application at least). It has a DoC socket, we used the 8mb version and in conjunction with Tinybsd it works quite well - managed to get kernel, ppp,telnet,ftp in/out, our custom app, and all the useful networking tools into about 4.5mb. The most important thing is it works very nicely - fast and stable. ICP's site: http://www.icp-australia.com.au/ Tinybsd's: http://students.ou.edu/S/Jeffrey.S.Sharp-1/ Cheers, Kent Ibbetson KNF Publishing kibbet@knfpub.com On 21-Sep-00 Phillip Musumeci wrote: > > Hi, > > Has anyone got got any experience with single board embedded systems > running FreeBSD (or any of the BSDs)?
