Dear all,
I try to cobble together a machine that will be used as a router under OpbenBSD 3.7 when it comes out. The idea is to have no moveable parts, so it is going to be a box based on a VIA Epia board with a 600 or 800 Mhz processor, which does not require a fan. No real hard disk. Instead I would like to use a USB stick for mass storage, since they are a bit cheaper than equivalent IDE flash drives but more importantly, they can easily be pulled out and for instance swapped with another stick with patches, upgrades or a newer version of the OS. I have searched the archives and Goggle, but I have only found messages from people who have not managed to boot from a USB stick and/or mount a filesystem from it as root. Is there somebody out there who has succeeded using OpenBSD in such a configuration? Many thanks in advance, -- Joerg Lenneis email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
