Hi, I originally sent this e-mail to freebsd-questions mailing-list, and someone pointed me to this mailing-list for answers, anyhow, here goes: I have a couple of Sun Blade 100 workstations, and I would like to install FreeBSD on one or both of them. The last time I tried (5.1-R, and I read that the situation has not improved much with either 5.2 or 5.2.1), there was no keyboard/mouse/floppy support and you had to install FreeBSD using a serial console. Has that (or will that) change with 5.3-RELEASE/STABLE? I would like to use one of the Blade 100s as a dedicated workstation, and if 5.3-R works fine, I'll buy a nice LCD display for it. Anyone care to shed some light on this? P.S. Please CC me a reply, since I'm not subscribed to the list. Thank you. -Assad
