I connected a 2.5 inch HDD to my desktop PC and installed the full version of FreeBSD 7.0 there. Then I stuck the drive in my (512MB) 5501 and the kernel booted fine. Finally, I got on the serial console and played with mount and fstab to change to the right device names so the file systems created on the PC could be mounted. I also brought up telnetd so I could do the rest of the configuration over the LAN. YMMV, but this works fine if you are going to use the Soekris as a little server with a HHD and don't want to worry about dealing with CF and "embedded" BSD variants. -- Ward _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
