What are these blades destined for > as far as, what will they be serving up? I work at www.zapatec.com and we have an application hosting framework based on Java. Since JDK/JRE support in FreeBSD is currently a bit weak, the RLX blades will start off running other things like Apache, postfix and Postgresql. I just built world on one of them (/usr/src and /usr/obj mounted over NFS) and it went without a hitch, which is very encouraging. What are you looking to do with them? My main concern is the lack of "internal" serial console support -- if enough FreeBSD people get together and ask we might get RLX to provide us the stuff needed to get to the internal serial console from the Master blade like under RedHat..
