How does "solder onto the RedBoot UART" count as a "remote exploit"? ;)
-----Original Message----- From: "Michael Goetze" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-arm@lists.debian.org Sent: 4/29/08 3:42 PM Subject: Thecus N299 Hi, aparently Thecus has released a new, incredibly cheap, 2-Bay NAS, the N299. It seems to run on the Gemini SL3516[1] which seems to have all the necessary code already available under the GPL [2]. Now, since I'm a cheapo, and the N2100 costs twice as much, I'm quite interested. I wonder if anyone could (maybe someone has actually seen one?) could give me an educated guess as to ... whether it will be possible to get a root shell without waiting for a new remote exploit? ... whether it will eventually be possible to run Debian on this box? ... how it might stack up to the N2100 performance-wise? All comments appreciated! Kind regards, Michael (Please CC me as I am not subscribed.)
