I agree that the Ubuntu route will probably be the easiest since there are apt repositories for the things that you'll need. I'm running FreeBSD on mine (FreeNAS with Michael Herger's SlimNAS extension) and the overhead is very low. It doesn't run any GUI and runs pretty decently on a Celeron 600 with 256mb ram.
With Ubuntu you can also install Webmin (if it's not already installed) to maintain the system without having to do a whole lot of command line stuff. -- ik632 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ik632's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13780 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41839 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
