Many thanks for all the replies and comments.
My Orange wireless router is far away from my HiFi and hence this is the reason I wanted to avoid running a long cable from my Hifi to the router. Of course I could as suggested have the Sheevaplug next to the router and stream wirelessly and perhaps this would be fine, I haven't tried this but the main point of the excersise is to try soundchecks mods which include hardwiring the network connection. Once the sheevaplug is up and running hopefully I won't need to access it anyway, otherwise I will have to look at running the long network cable. I have ordered the Sheevaplug and hopefully the Wiki page and the downloaded SD Card image will proove easy to install and setup. On a related note I have read with interest the thread on powering down the Touch and the file systems ext2 and ext3. From what I have understood ext3 allows you to switch off the harddrive (as long as it is not being read or written to) and the data should not get corrupted. I realise that my windows XP based computer won't be able to format my HDD in ext3 format. Can anybody tell me how I can format my USB external 1TB HDD in ext3 format and then transfer my music back onto it? Is this possible and is it difficult?
