Hi!

Well... I am now running b98 on an SDHC card... :) But... I had to
install 93 on the SDHC then pfexec pkg image-update to 98... the I
re-added the ath-0.7.3 driver and the audiohd 08-25 driver... so I now
have audio and WiFi and, of course, the webcam works like a charm.

Internal SSD holds Ubuntu Eee... which I'm not ready to remove on that
machine... :)
