Nice, as I heard prices on CF and DOM will drop and capacaty will increse. Will you also consider using intel NIC chipset(s) instead of RTL, and preferably 3 of those ;)? Very interesting indeed. Maybe a new chassie a PCI riser and the D-Link DFE-580TX ? :-) As of kernel-2.4.19.3mdk-1-1mdk the DFE-580TX is working, very nice, thanks Juan! -- Regards // Oden Eriksson Deserve-IT Networks -> http://d-srv.com
