Hello folks...

I need to know if the latest-model HP NetServer LH can work with either
Linux 2.x or FreeBSD 2.1.5.  I have have a 4d/66 LM running FreeBSD
2.1.0, and a LC, doing Linux 1.2.13.

I believe the integrated SCSI controller and Ethernet would be the issue.
Replacing the Ethernet would be no problem, but not using the onboard
SCSI would be a waste.

Thanks for any inputs on this!
