Hi Francisco,

Anyone used a mini ATX machine with FreeBSD?

It's mini ITX and yes, just did one yesterday. Small, quiet and beautiful. ;-)


It was a ME6000 (fanless 600Mhz machine):

My primary concern is the network card. Since these small machines only
have one PCI slot I will add one card for the internal network and then
would need the onboard card to connect to the outside world.

I tried a 3com 3c905 with this box and it wouldn't boot. Putting in a RTL8139 worked flawlessly. Since the box won't be doing any 'real' work, that's okay with me for now.


HTH... Nico
