The current beagleboard angstrom and minimal distro's (and maybe

What is iscsi and why would I need it on the Beagleboard?
http://stgt.sourceforge.net/
the pacakge is from
http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/
It is used by tgt (http://stgt.sourceforge.net/)
with it you can e.g. mount an iscsi disk.
iscsi is for instance also supported by windows 7 and by various NAS-es.
Its throughput is better than Samba or NFS.
So for beagle it could act as mechanism to e.g. retrieve content from a NAS.
So the trade off is a kernel that has the best chance of fully
supporting the OMAP3 peripherals, or attaching to a NAS that is windows
centric.
The point I am trying to make is we can't expect all packages to build
for every MACHINE/DISTRO combination. People have to make tradeoffs.
