X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2009 15:53:07 -0000 I'm considering getting one of MSI's "nettop" computers to run a small server in my home. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it would run FreeBSD or not? There is a model with Linux pre-installed, so I'm hopeful. I just figured I'd ask before spending a few hundred dollars. :) http://msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=Wind_Nettop_CS120&class=npc Also, I have no prior experience with FreeBSD's wifi support or using Compact Flash or SD cards. (Despite using FreeBSD since version 2.2.1!) Any pointers? Many thanks in advance to any help you guys can offer.
