Great article. I can imagine quite a few people will want to 'mod' devices like this to run SlimServer rather than having to run a full blown PC 24/7/52.
When I looked around for an alternative to my PC based Mandriva SlimServer I did look at the Synology 101J NAS as a possible option, but as I couldn't find any info. on anyone porting SS to it (and therefore didn't know whether it would even be possible to do it) I moved onto other devices. In the end I purchased (three weeks ago) a KuroBoxHG, installed my own HD, and proceeded to install Gentoo and SlimServer on it. It's now been running 10 days, AlienBBC & LastFM installed without issue, and it's been servicing 2 Squeezeboxen and 1 Softsqueeze player without fail, even when playing flac music whilst downloading same onto it from the original Mandriva box. I'm well impressed with it... If anyone is interested I'll do a wiki entry for those wanting to use the KuroBoxHG as a SS. Maybe a wiki entry for Philippe's work would be good also?
