I use 'voyage linux' on it - which is debian etch based (http://linux.voyage.hk/). It's dead easy to put on a CF card, which then boots the alix just fine. All you need is a serial port to get console output from the alix. For the record - if you want an alix with VGA/keyboard, you can look at the alix.1c. Netgate does not sell it, but there are other vendors in the US that do. And the alix.1c can run coreboot (formerly LinuxBIOS). I hope that the alix.2c3 will be able to run coreboot soon-ish too, they are very similar.
