		bartvanH on Nov 10, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: OpenBSD Router Guide I don't know the specifics of the Net6501, but can't you do a foreign debootstrap where you let debootstrap copy all files on a machine that is already installed, then boot it up on the Soekris itself and let it do the rest of its install work over the serial connection?

If you could direct me to a how-to, I would appreciate it.
