hi erik,

couple of questions related to this posting as well as your previous one on
soekris box:

- will this work for 5501 as well?
- did u get as many as 8 ethernet ports working?

i am thinking of getting 5501 and trying plan9/inferno.

here are the things i like about soekris:

- surprisingly, their products have a long life (in terms of availability)
compared to other embedded boards from other companies
- price is reasonable and affordable. prices dont change much whether an
individual orders or a company orders, one or 1000 boards, etc. Also one can
order any number of boards (no limit on min. qty)
- many OSes are known to run

i wish plan9/inferno community provides more support for soekris products.
earlier, i used to wonder why ron minnich didnt go for soekris boards for
his projects.

regards
dharani
