Could someone please share their fstab for their
diskless frontend that is working?
I found that my diskless xBox is stuttering a little
although CPU usage is only ~50%. The 766mhz PIII
PVR250 backend is fine, and is able to broadcast
stutter free to my wife's 1Ghz PIII with only 0.3% CPU
usage
I'd be surprised if the fstab has anything to do
with this.
Memory usage as reported by free is not what you
need to look at. Monitor per process usage via
top and look at the RES and SHR columns.
Did you look at xbox specific settings? I would look
at audio buffering, acceleration, resolution,

Hi ,
I would like to setup a diskless mythtv frontend. I have a working

I noticed in an earlier post, someone mentioned they had something
similar using knoppymyth. Please could you

Adam,
Why do you think that your current gentoo nfs share
based diskless sucks for mythfrontend. My xBox is an
NFS rooted diskless and it seems to work great as a
frontend now that I finally have everything
configured. My only current problem is to figure out
how to get lirc to recognise the

lirc working :-(
Good luck,
Ben

My diskless system is only a slow celeron 500 with 256ram. I would

As mentioned b4 , it basically a gentoo setup. Thats no ramdisk in
use. X is slow , but responsive. Im running a icewm , as

For the record, I've used disk-less/nfs-root frontends before and I'm
setting one up now using FC4 and I expect it will work flawlessly (and
quietly, once the drive is removed and the fans are undervolted.)

You may have seen my references to using a diskless

Currently I'm still trying to fix a few things, in particular
large memory usage which I don't know where it comes from.

built in. It also has PXE
