The Ericsson eBox is close to what you want. I don't know how well it runs FreeBSD; it ships with a bastardized RedHat 5.something, and I've never tried installing FreeBSD on one, but it's a plain-jane 486DX with on-board Ethernet and one or two PCCARD (possibly Cardbus) slots; the only difficulty I can foresee is finding / writing a driver for the on-board 24MB flash ROM, I have no idea what brand it is. Bulk price is something like $400-$500 w/tax. DES -- Dag-Erling Smorgrav - des@ofug.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
