 FreeBSD-2.1-stable :)    I think you'll find that, as with most things,
 if you want all the new neat tricks you have to trade features against
 stability.

 I've heard of some 1.2.x systems running for hundreds of days.  I'd also
 suggest you buy a decent system... an ASUS motherboard for starts, with
 a PCI NCR810 SCSI card and at least 32mb (ram is cheap).

 If your running news you might wanna look a ccd (concatenated
 drive) support for interleaving over multiple spindles.   It _does_
 increase throughput quite dramatically.
