I'd offer to look into making it work if you could provide a serial console and a system to netboot it from but I'm having enough trouble making time to work on the port in general at the moment. If you're willing to get your hands dirty I'd be happy to try to help you as much as I can to get it running yourself... --=20 Benno Rice benno@FreeBSD.org --=-InTj3ZA/IL56JfOChQzc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA+v7sAXjRwWofFmQkRAkX1AJ95ZweK9FnzXP3ankJvr5mmCiyX3gCePe7o ZDELNN5hL+3HgWje1n1+huo= =+0wY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-InTj3ZA/IL56JfOChQzc--
