Greetings misc@.  After coming across a link[1] to make an OpenBSD
router using a "Soekris" device, I think I will make one.  Does anyone
else have this hardware and can verify all the components work?
I think Intel NICs are good, but everything else?  I have never heard
of this brand before so I want to be safe before buying.  The model
number[2] is "6501-30"

I've got a rack-mounted net6501-50 working well at the moment,
but I've only been using it for a few weeks so far.

Not sure "all" the components work, but it was easy to install
OpenBSD 5.3 to a USB stick, boot off that, then install to an SSD.

You have to connect with a serial cable, I've found a cheap USB->serial adapter
connected to a null modem cable to work well.

Any issues I've had - Google has given the answers.  8-)

Also got a 5501 in use and that's been working well, too.

dmesg from the 6501:
