This list discusses topics related to unusually small and embedded FreeBSD installations. I hope we will share ideas on: * booting process and devices (various filesystems, flash RAM, EEPROM etc...), * available and recommended hardware, * special hardware (peripherals such as probes, relays, readers, step motors etc, etc), and support for it, * details of (necessarily different) setup and configuration, * user applications (shall we say: router? :) and real-life applications, * special setups such as PicoBSD, * and many others. I'm also willing to maintain WWW pages related to these topics. I know some of you have some experience in this area, and I encourage you to submit ideas and pointers. There are already a few things I've been collecting for some time... Please see http://www.freebsd.org/~abial for these.
