Thanks everyone who helped on this.

I was able to get slimserver up and running.  Unfortunately, I can't
test because my SB3 hasn't arrived yet.

For now, I'm ignoring the kernel headers issue


- stuff I downloaded:
http://linkstationwiki.org/downloads/development_tools/ppc-tools-2.tgz
http://slimdevices.com/downloads/SlimServer_v6.2.1/SlimServer_v6.2.1.tar.gz
http://download.sourceforge.net/expat/expat-1.95.8.tar.gz


- installation outline of what I did (for anyone else trying this
out):

1. install ppc-tools-2.tgz (there is a README inside)

2. setup cc because the slimserver perl module setup script uses cc,
not gcc:
cd /usr/bin
ln -s gcc cc

3. install expat1:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make install


4. install slimserver:
untar in /mnt
mkdir /mnt/slimdata
ln -s /mnt/SlimServer_v6.2.1 /mnt/slimserver
/mnt/SlimServer_v6.2.1/Bin/build-perl-modules.pl
(wait for the downloading and compiling/linking)


5. create a daemon control script:
save attachment as /mnt/slimdata/slimserver
chmod 744 /mnt/slimdata/slimserver
activate on startup: ln -s /mnt/slimdata/slimserver
/etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S94slimserver

6. hack /mnt/slimdata/slimserver.pref to allow other machines on the
network to connect
allowedHosts: '127.0.0.1,192.168.11.150,192.168.11.1'

7. logs are written to /var/log/linkstation.log
