On the one hand I have a Blade-150-workstation that works fine and stable with OpenBSD for 2..3 years now. On the other hand I tried to setup OpenBSD on some V240/V245 and ended with kernel panics during installation process. And on the same hardware Debian-5 works fine for years - or better "worked" as we're uninstalling these old servers now due to the energy consumption to keep them running. RU, Tobias.
