As I mentioned in an earlier thread on this subject, I've had one for about
a month now and it runs NetBSD (1.5.2) just fine. Only caveat: neither the
onboard TV-out (Chrontel CH7006C) or Firewire (Lucent FW323) interfaces are
supported under 1.5.2. Maybe in current....
One word of warning -- be careful putting this together as it is a very
tight fit. I ruined two IDE cables (including the special short cable in
the box) before I got everything set up.
