Hi, Adam
As you know this is an area where we agree to disagree. Currently the
schoolserver's valid, useful content exceeds 500GB. I really do not want
to get into the game of deciding what is worthwhile and what is not. It
is clear that the planned expansion of OSM will require increased
Hi, Gerhard
The trick is to separate the server software from the content. Install
the basic IIAB on a smaller SD card (e.g. 16GB). Then mount the 128GB
usb drive (mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb0 for example). IIAB expects the
content to be in /library. This should be possible by a symbolic link
What is the impact of this approach on internet dependence? The main
problem I have is to create an offline
service with content. This has led to the creation of 'bernie', a copy
of the schoolserver on an external 1TB drive.
There are, of course, many problems with dependencies. I view resolving
as
exactly as possible.
