Dear John,
I think if you need the webserver/fileserver getting up and running quick,
go back to the linux/cobalt port. I'm not sure if someone looked has
compared the original linux / netBSD port in terms of stability. In
my experience both are similar.
My personal advise
keep the linux coablt if
you just need basic samba/netatalk/webhosing
no need for extra applications
you can live with the 10 Gbyte hard drive
if you need
more applications
active developed port
better security
larger disk
then I think you have no option, you have to get netBSD running
This is just my personal opinion.
Frank
PS: does someone know if the original install cd recognizes larger drives ?
