hi, FreeBSD-8 works great on these boards, but there are some gotchas, the boot and the serial: output works fine, but input is 'problematic'. the pxeboot serial handling is ok, the boot menu is ok, but booting off the CF (using boot0sio), the input 'screwy' at the selection of partition it is ignored, at the OK: prompt from the boot (i had no kernel in the slice), the input is usually doubled: sshooww instead of show which is probably similar to what is happening with boot0sio but it only echoes # (the current bell). Once the kernel is up, the serial works fine. any ideas? thanks, danny
