I'm here.. :-) do you mean to put the seeder
on
/etc/init.d/systemimager-server-bittorrent, instead of
using
si_installbtimage? The only disadvantage I see with this approach is
how
to update the tarballs and torrents of the images when they are
updated
on /var/lib/systemimager/images... with si_installbtimage there's
the
--update option, how to do that with a init script?
If you mean to
simply daemonize the command si_installbtimage, I
agree... we can simply set
the --quiet option as default and add the
--stop option to kill the seeder.
Other ideas?
Cheers,
-Andrea
