As I mentioned in an earlier thread on this subject, I've had one for about
a month now and it runs NetBSD (1.5.2) just fine.  Only caveat:  neither the
onboard TV-out (Chrontel CH7006C) or Firewire (Lucent FW323) interfaces are
supported under 1.5.2.  Maybe in current....

One word of warning -- be careful putting this together as it is a very
tight fit.  I ruined two IDE cables (including the special short cable in
the box) before I got everything set up.
