Definitely works for me :-) See the XS_Techniques page for hints on - Installing from USB. I've added notes there on how to avoid the installer crashes. - How to run your wlan0 as the WAN port. Note: you can create an ifcfg-wlan0 to configure it fully, but it gets messy trying to connect to WPA-protected APs on boot. - Using xs_swapnics to make your "eth0" into eth1 so you can hook up an AP there. If you are very lucky, your netbook may have a WLAN that can run as an AP (using a hostap driver). That'd be nice to see in action too. If your netbook has a small HD, might be wise to disable the backup service. Just comment out the relevant parts in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ds-backup.conf file and restart apache... cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list server-de...@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
