I have USL-5P (with the system on the CF card and no built-in
storage). I've prepared the CF on i386 machine and put it in place of
the stock CF with Linux.
Prepared means:
. fdisk
. disklabel
. newfs
. untar sets
. installboot
. tweak few files in /etc (fstab, rc.conf)
You will also need to make a serail console cable:
