My questions are: (1) Will FreeBSD run with this hardware? Particularly I'm concerned about the video card and the SCSI card. I've read the list of compatible hardware at http://www.freebsd.org and don't understand. (2) What about FreeBSD running with the 70ns SIMMs on this machine? Does FreeBSD need 60ns (or faster) SIMMs for a Pentium 133MHz machine?? If it is not obvious, I'm new to this! Thanks for your help!!
