Greetings,
Personally, I've had a lot of luck with the 7308E. The advantage of a larger
image is reletive to your needs. I like the DoC mostly because I can get a 7M
root filesystem into it along with the kernel. I use the filesystem to hold a
Debian rescue disk + modules + monte for booting other kernels.
It's also proven itself as a good general use MB in our servers.
NOTE: Linux Labs sells the 7308E, DoC, and systems based on them commercially,
so I might be biased! On the other hand, we sell those in part because that's
what Ron wanted from us, and part in because because I did prefer them.
G'day,
sjames
