ok, NetBSD is SOOOOOOOOOOO easy to install on these machines.  it's cake.  i
love it.  unfortunately i'd REALLY like to play with the Bridging Packet
Filter stuff, which unfortunately, NetBSD still lacks (AFAIK)

trying to install OpenBSD has been a completely painful experience.  i have
finally managed (after two days of trying) to get OpenBSD to netboot the
ramdisk miniroot image, and it starts the install process.  but great joy,
it doesn't see my RF72 at all.

i'd really like to play with this stuff, but if i can't get it to work, i at
least know that i have the option of installing NetBSD and using ipf, but there
is something very cool about a firewall that can't be attacked since it has no
IP address, and really doesn't even exist.

anyway, does anyone have any advice on how to maybe make this all work??

thanks!!

running in as well...  Thanks, Richard...              -- George Adkins --
