Hi Pat, DSL-N looks abandoned today. Ubuntu is a lot bigger than DSL, but maybe customization of the Ubuntu Live CD is possible, with SqueezeCenter added in. I am running SlimCD on my music server, and Ubuntu on two other machines, and I have basically removed Windows from my life. What a feeling of liberty that has come into my soul!!! Ok ... I guess I am a geek and easily amused. I am going to look into customizing the Ubuntu Live CD. -Ron -- Ron F. *Squeezebox setup:* wireless SB3 -> CI Audio VDA.2 DAC + VAC.1 PSU *Main rig:* NAD 7600 + NAD 2600A -> Phase Tech PC-6.5 speakers *Headphone rig:* Headroom Max -> Sennheiser 650s *Music Server:* Nano-ITX computer running SlimCD + 750 GByte HDD -> Netgear wireless router *Other stuff:* NAD C542 CDP, NAD 6300 Tape, Monster 5100 Power conditioner, Outlaw Audio cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ron F.'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5616 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41891 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
