Can FreeBSD 4.11 and 5.4 run on a HP DL-140 G2 server?

[Paul Hamilton]

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for that.  Yes, I can't wait to have a crack at 6.0.  I downloaded
the first beta, but it refused to install.  I read recently on the list, a
thread talking about this.  I just haven't had time to test out the fix.
Going on holidays shortly, so I hope 6.0 will be released by the time I get
back :-)

Cheers,

Paul
