Yeah, I realize it's more powerful than necessary to handle the
task...though my current firewall/router is a 860+ Mhz PIII w/ 128 Megs
of ram. So, this would be a downgrade for my current firewall/router
which allows me to repurpose the existing machine for something more
computationally expensive.
Still though, I like information requested on nanoBSD (can it fit on a
floppy), and how if booting off a usb stick is doable. I imagine this
has to do with later bios's...or not?
Thanks!
