Hi Sameer, We (OLPC France) are considering small, rugged and inexpensive boards/enclosures for an operation as XS server with some (to be defined) services assigned to a standard XS server:
- Ultra Mobile XO Server ( http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Projects/UltraMobileXOServer ) - Soekris - PC Engines (http://pcengines.ch/ ), based on ALIX system boards ( http://pcengines.ch/alix.htm ) Best regards, Samy Selon Sameer Verma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > In a recent thread Martin L mentioned the possibility of looking at > platforms for XS that run headless. That got me thinking about soekris > boards. Although usually targeted towards routers, soekris boards are > quite well tested in the field under extreme conditions. I've used > Soekris for Wi-Fi routers, Asterisk, etc. > > Has anyone considered looking into that platform? The latest board has > 433 to 500 Mhz Geode LX , four 10/100 Mbit ethernet ports, up to 1 Gbyte > DDR-SDRAM main memory and uses a CompactFlash module for program and > data storage. It can be expanded using a MiniPCI type III board, a hard > drive and one or two low-power standard PCI boards. > > More info on Soekris at http://www.soekris.com/ > > cheers, > Sameer > > -- > Dr. Sameer Verma, Ph.D. > Associate Professor of Information Systems > San Francisco State University > San Francisco CA 94132 USA > http://verma.sfsu.edu/ > http://opensource.sfsu.edu/ > > _______________________________________________ > Server-devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel > _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
