I really like the idea behind Michael Herger's SlimCD... so to take that a step further ... how hard is it to:
1) Create a similar CD for the PowerPC platform? (Mac Mini G4 for in my case) 2) Create some sort of master bootable (linux?) external USB2/Firewire drive with SlimServer (and perhaps Firefly server and a UPnP server) that has a couple of partitions. e.g. (i) a partition that will allow booting on usb boot enabled generic x86 machines (windows+dell types) (ii) if needed a partition for booting intel macs (via firewire / usb2) (iii) if needed a partition for booting PPC macs (via firewire), and (iv) a FAT32 partition to store all the media (e.g FLAC and mp3 files) - so this can be accessed even if you don't booth from the drive. Does this make sense? Will this be useful to anyone? Can it be done? -- Nikhil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nikhil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=993 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37808 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
