Yea, but those systems aren't quite pure ISA systems. They are SBCs with an ISA interface, but with PCI NICs and built in IDE controllers. We're not talking about breaking those. Your systems have 64MB or more of RAM, which is enough to run FreeBSD (should you guys ever forward port). Though, to be honest, I'm not sure if UART would work with that particular card... All the proprietary cards that I recall should still work, though there may be some hassle with the network stuff one of them does. Warner
