FreeBSD Alpha Status

[WebServer]

Hi all,

Before all, could you give the "REAL" status of the
version distros? I mean:
- What is fully functional
- What not
- Which machines are really supported? (Any get
succesfully installed on EB164?)
- Hardware support: sound, modem, nic, bla bla
- Xfree works? tga support?
- How many alpha users/developer are? the future
promises?
- There is more functional than RH 7.1?

After search for a functional boot floppies & several
tries to write the partitions, i give up ... sadly i
find that 5.2.1 still is not ready (correct me if
doesn't true) and follows the incomplete way of:
Mandrake and Debian. So, i must resign to use the dead
and more functional RH7.1.

The alpha distros list are very short, i think this is
the last that's currently working. 

Thanks for your opinions
