swarm32Turns out the bloody thing supports USB keyboard and mice out of the box. All that work for nothing I guess.
Currently wrangling IPCop onto it. By default it only supports up to 4 NICs, but at the moment it has seven. I put a 3com 10/100 NIC in so I'd have a clue as to which one is my WAN port.

Turns out its going to take a bit of work to set it up the way I want to. At least I can use the box directly now instead of figuring out how to wrestle with the serial ports. I can always do that later.
I may try the tricks here to try and get the LCD on the front to do something useful.
