Summary :: Building a cheap and very compact Linux NAS appliance AbstractHacking the Western Digital Mybook II to transform this elegant external hard drive into a bare-bones, extremely flexible hardware platform, in a revival of what we did with the Linksys WRT54G a few years ago. Intermediate system skills (particularly Perl and Shell) recommended, along with imagination and the desire to have fun!
In addition, Brian DeLacey will provide just a brief neutral introduction to the device, as a transition/connection to the next meeting where it will be discussed in more depth.
For further information and directions please consult the BLU Web site http://www.blu.org Please note that there is usually plenty of free parking in the E-51 parking lot at 2 Amherst St, or on Amherst St. We will adjourn to the Cambridge Brewery for our after meeting meeting. -- Jerry Feldman <g...@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
