Hi Jason! An added benefit of a slimmed down install is that there
are fewer vectors of attack. If you're using OpenBSD, that's probably
important to you.
You could always start with flashdist and add what you need/want.

I've had great success with pfSense on 4801. easy install and

booting it.
I solved that problem by installing lilo as my bootloader. Here's the

Hi everyone. Over the years, there has been much talk about network
performance of various Soekris models. I think it might be
interesting to post some standardized results based on agreed-upon
metrics and test cases.
I currently have access to layer 2-3 and layer 4-7 test gear.

I don't know the reasoning, but it
seems (from what I saw) that comBIOS needs the CF to be inserted on
boot -- if I plug it in later, it causes problems.
I don't think IDE is a hotplug-capable bus. The devices need to be
present on boot.

Powerful, indeed. Nothing Soekris sells at the moment comes close,
