Home Improvements - Part 2
I’ve purchased my Linksys NSLU2 
Now I want to make some modifications. The issue is that there are a number of different firmware options to choose from.
My requirements:
- Serve files for media (Basic functionality for all firmware)
- Read from FAT32 formatted external drives (isn’t provided by the base firmware!! The device requires all disks to be formatted!)
- Bittorent client
- Subversion server
Based on this comparison of different firmware options I’m going to have to look at a full linux based OS. Unfortunately I’ve never used Linux, so trying to get it to work on a small memory/slow processor device is going to be a steep learning curve.
Stay tuned for the next exciting episode.
