I need this info! >=20 Gregory, We bought an ML370G2 about a year and a half ago. I was able to install = FreeBSD on it and compile/boot an SMP kernel. That was about the extent = of my playtime with the machine, which was quickly whisked off to slave = away as an MS SQL 2000 server. I know the onboard NICs work fine using the fxp driver, the onboard = video works OK and the onboard RAID controller is also supported via the = ciss driver. The fans dont get all loud either. -Will
