cisco, Linksys
Worthless waste of my cash. A 20$ pogoplug is more useful.
Cisco firmware does not allow subnets larger than /24
Cisco firmware does not allow virtual interfaces.
Cisco firmware does not allow jumbo frames.
130$ burned on useless trash.
If Open Source firmware is the only way to make Cisco products useful I'll buy 30$ devices in the future.
Wish I could get a refund.

I found a busted SunBlade 2500 at the office.
Now that it's on my desk what should I install?
While I like Solaris 10 on my big servers it seems pointless on an old junker with 4GB ram.
So what are my options? NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, Linux?
Turns out I have no options. I've tried all of the above and none of them work! Not even the amazing run anywhere NetBSD.

I upgraded the host to 8GB RAM as I was worried about OpenSolaris choking on 1GB RAM
Project is well underway with the goal of hosting my FreeBSD8 host in a VM and keep the storage in ZFS on OpenSolaris.
The host is a bit slow but it's usable with BSD, Ubuntu and OpenSolaris running at the same time.
I give 512meg ram to Ubuntu, 4.5GB ram to OpenSolaris and 1.5GB RAM to FreeBSD8.
More later.
