Announcing Instant SqueezeCenter

Instant SqueezeCenter is a single CD that will perform a fully
automated installation and configuration of a standalone Linux
SqueezeCenter server with minimal user input. The target user is
someone who wants a dedicated (probably headless) server to store music
and run SqueezeCenter. It should also be useful for dedicated VM
installations. Advanced linux knowledge is not necessary. The intention
is to be as turnkey as possible.

When booted, the CD will automatically do the dollowing:

* Format your hard disk(s) and install a trimmed-down copy of
CentOS 5 Linux
* Install SqueezeCenter along with mplayer, lame and AlienBBC (for
RTSP and WM)
* Configure music and playlist folders that can be accessed as
Windows shares
* Configure the server to automatically synchronize with public
time servers
* Configure the firewall and SELinux for proper operation
* Enable preliminary support for auto-mounting USB drives under the
music folder
* Enable automatic updates of all Linux and SqueezeCenter packages

For download and instructions see
http://www.miksis.com/slimdevices/Instant-SC/.  The torrent will
initially be fairly slow so please be patient.

Thanks to those who tested the beta.  I apologize for the lack of an
automated upgrade path...
