Hi all, I've got 'scratch my own itch' project I've got in the planning stages for Bacula Community. I'm looking at running Bacula on a Pi or Pi2 (depends what's not in use and the TLS CPU requirements) for my home office. Currently use Alpine but I want to move to using some work I've done with Yocto-OE to have a squashfs (read-only) rootfs with the only rw parts the configuration, working dirs (like /var), and the volume storage. This is intended as PoC for an embedded Backup Appliance using Bacula (in addition to satifying various private reasons for wanting to do this). Obviously there speed limit is relatively low because of USB 2.0 limitation on Pi / Pi2, but upgrading the storage transfer rate will have to wait for room in the budget (and for the small number of hosts / mostly small hosts which I'm doing backups, there is a really need for more speed).
Anyway once I have more to report, on github, would folk on list be interested? (Long term I hope to develop a WebUI for controlling the device, including managing local and cloud storage, networking, and of course Bacula itself (though I need to look in to existing WebUI's to see if they'll work for this use case first to see if I need to work on that).
