All, I want to build a high performance IP router using FreeBSD and Zebra (maybe gated as a backup if I hit trouble with Zebra). One criterion for this design is to avoid having to use a hard drive (reduce power, make it easier to harden the hardware). So, has anyone any experiance of diskless FreeBSD, or maybe using a small ammount of FLASH for the boot up and config and then using a RAM drive from then on, and booting most stuff off a network. Clearly there are a few ideas here. Has anyone any experience of pushing FreeBSD really very hard indead when routing? This could be a really cool project if ti happens :-) AJ Alander J.
