While I have a PI available for me to play with, I haven't gone too far down playing with it yet. Belongs to work, and I don't want to take it home right yet.
One of the thoughts I had about the memory issue is that the PI has GPIO pins much like an arduino does. It might not bee too difficult to take a page from arduinos and lash up some more memory via the GPIO pins. Would make for a really good daughter card for those devices. Granted, once you have it physically attached, you still have to write a driver to be able to use it. That might prove to be the harder part. Anyways, just an idea. BTW, there is nothing stopping you from running a swap partition for the PI either on the SD card, or via a USB or other network attached drive. ----- Original Message ----- > I have been looking to build a low wattage box to run only Backup > on.
