Yeah, I agree. As far as throwing more RAM at it...just removing one
nearly microscopic resistor last night to clock the slug was enough
to freak me out. ("Gawd, my hands are shaking...is it the caffeine?
Incipient Parkinson's?") I dont think Im up to removing and
replacing surface mounted ram chips. The instructions at
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/FattenYourSlug seem a little
sketchy at this point anyway.
I am kind of curious about this whole realm (SlimServer on a NAS)
though. I took a risk and placed an order for a raid 5 SATA NAS device
that is supposed to be able to run SlimServer:
http://www.eaegis.com/Browse_Item_Details.asp/Item_ID/10/categ_id/114/parent_ids/64,114/Name/ReadyNAS_Diskless_System
This is actually a little less insane that it might seem at first
glance, as Ive got 1.5 terabytes worth of SATA disks kicking around
here gathering dust. The price comparison vs. the NSLU2 is a little
extreme ($600 vs. $80 or less) but, hey, it does come with 128mb of
RAM, so there.
