Install on an x750 core firebox
-
I have one of these coming out of service. the other is still active until I can replace it. was thinking of playing with pfsense on it. also have some older fbii or fbiii laying around here. anyone local to the phoenix area and interested in playing too? I'm a total N00b at this and at Linux so if it doesn't work right out of the box, it will be difficult to troubleshoot for me.
just shoot me an email or reply to the topic.also, if anyone has a little How To of video I would love to read or watch it.
I have followed some of the threads here and it seems possible.thanks
UPDATE: I have a x750e Core to load on and a FBIII 1000 you can play with as well. the 1000 still has the rack mount brackets and I think I have the manuals for both around here.

Hi,
You shouldn't have too many problems, a few other people have done it before and documented their experiences. Have a search on the forum. The 550e, 750e and 1250e are all identical internally (the 550e didn't have the extra ports card) so any of those are applicable. Really nice hardware in the newer 'e' boxes too, lots of upgrade potential! 8)Steve
