My sad times

Somehow boxee did not work on the e4850 box I built and the drivers from ATI produced a ridiculous noise on the display when the CPU underclocked to 1GHz. I'll just have to settle for boxee on my imac for now. I was really looking forward to attempting hardware decode.
Abandoning Ubuntu I was not able to get the device to boot DragonFly BSD off a jump drive. On top of all of this I forgot my brand new 1TB sata drive at the apartment.
Next weekend I'll try to flash the BIOS from a USB jump drive and install the FreeBSD 7.2 beta but I'm not sure how to make a USB boot image for FreeBSD yet. I may just dd the ISO to a OCZ flash drive and see what happens.
In the meantime I'm attempting to install Ubuntu 8.10 sever on a P3 notebook with 256meg of ram for VPN and dynamic DNS.
On a distant tangent I'm hoping to switch Hong to an N280 netbook with 10inch display for her birthday.
