Dec 01 11:17:56 <Solarbaby> Hiya..  it's been years since I've deicded to tweak with my Nslu2.. its been running great since I unslung it..  Now I see there are many more choices today.  Im weaning towards OpenWrt..  Would anyone care discussing their thoughts on that with me?
Dec 01 11:19:44 <Solarbaby> I've been using the device mainly as a Samba server for my xbox's..  but also the nslu2 always made a great lite weight linux server for torrent downloading, and ssh

Dec 01 20:41:17 <jbbeauf> hello all
Dec 01 20:42:05 <jbbeauf> I've a problem trying with unslug : my NSLU2 refuse to boot on the extern HD

Dec 02 01:37:32 <DrJ> I like SlugOS
Dec 02 01:37:58 <Solarbaby> Hey DrJ
Dec 02 01:38:04 <DrJ> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/FAQ/FirmwareMatrix  <--this might help you
Dec 02 01:38:23 <Solarbaby> a few years ago you helped me decide to UnSlung..  I guess that might be slugos.. shrug.. I dont really remember
Dec 02 01:38:51 <DrJ> I did?
Dec 02 01:38:51 <Solarbaby> anyways its been sooo long I feel that I should redo the whole thing with security in mind
Dec 02 01:38:57 <Solarbaby> Yes you did
Dec 02 01:39:10 <Solarbaby> I was trying decide whether I'd go Debian or Unslung
Dec 02 01:39:15 <DrJ> wow, surprised you would remember me ... sorry ... But I do not remember you :)
Dec 02 01:39:17 <Solarbaby> you decided me on Unslung
Dec 02 01:39:34 <Solarbaby> no worries..  you were a pretty good source of info
Dec 02 01:41:09 <Solarbaby> Yeah I checked out that firmware matrix page..   Im still undecided I just want user opinions at this point
Dec 02 01:41:48 <Solarbaby> OpenWrt can boot up with out a operating system on a usb drive..  if I keep the system lite it might be nice to let the hard drive go to sleep when its not being accessed
Dec 02 01:42:08 <Solarbaby> keeping it lite might be easier said then done though..  hehe
Dec 02 01:42:36 <DrJ> weird ... don't see you in my logs ever talking to me
Dec 02 01:42:48 <Solarbaby> try nearly 3 years ago
Dec 02 01:43:06 <DrJ> maybe you used a different nick
Dec 02 01:43:14 <Solarbaby> nope.. same nick
Dec 02 01:43:36 <Solarbaby> if this helps.. at the time you used to sell Nslu2's pre-configured
Dec 02 01:46:29 <Solarbaby> anyways I appreciated your help back then Thanks
Dec 02 01:47:17 <Solarbaby> is anyone else currently using OpenWRT?  should I make the jump?
Dec 02 01:47:37 <DrJ> only person I see you talking to at all is a user named <doughie> 
Dec 02 01:47:52 <DrJ> on dec 13, 2007
Dec 02 01:47:58 <Solarbaby> do your logs really go back nearly 3 years?
Dec 02 01:48:04 <DrJ> yes
Dec 02 01:48:28 <Solarbaby> weird..  well your missing the logs from our chats 
Dec 02 01:48:57 <Solarbaby> try looking for DrStone although Im practicly sure I wasn't using that nickname
Dec 02 01:49:25 <DrJ> nope
Dec 02 01:49:38 <Solarbaby> yeah well I dont know what to tell ya.. I remember you just fine
Dec 02 01:50:15 <DrJ> 3 years ago I went by the nick Nimmit ... so it could not have been that far back 
Dec 02 01:50:30 <Solarbaby> nearly 3 years
Dec 02 01:50:44 <Solarbaby> I bought my Nslu2 after I moved to Nevada.. and I moved there 3 years ago
Dec 02 01:51:36 <Solarbaby> tell me this.. did you used to modify Nslu2's and sell them when you had some in stock?
Dec 02 01:51:41 <DrJ> yes
Dec 02 01:51:46 <DrJ> that was in 2007
Dec 02 01:51:54 <Solarbaby> at the time I talked to you.. you were sold out and I did it myself
Dec 02 01:52:10 <Solarbaby> you had sold the last one only 2 weeks before I spoke to you for the first time
Dec 02 01:52:14 <DrJ> that probably would've been around june-october of 2007 then
Dec 02 01:52:35 <Solarbaby> we chatted on and off for about 2 weeks
Dec 02 01:53:33 <Solarbaby> so yeah.. my slugos is that old..  its time to redo it eh?
Dec 02 01:54:12 <DrJ> ah wait
Dec 02 01:54:14 <DrJ> got one
Dec 02 01:54:44 <DrJ> [01-05-08 11:42:41:pm] <solarbaby> i can't seem to find any crontab program on my UnSlung
Dec 02 01:54:45 <Solarbaby> hehe congrats!  you really do have some far back archives
Dec 02 01:54:51 <DrJ> that was this year
Dec 02 01:55:02 <Solarbaby> I remember that
Dec 02 01:55:25 <Solarbaby> I hate crontabs even now
Dec 02 01:55:31 <Solarbaby> evil stuff

Dec 02 01:56:19 <DrJ> [09-11-07 01:43:59:am] * solarbaby (n=Doc@adsl-69-230-211-14.dsl.irvnca.pacbell.net) has joined #nslu2-general
Dec 02 01:56:27 <DrJ> first time I have you in logs as ever joining this channel
Dec 02 01:57:16 <Solarbaby> that dsl address was during one of my visits to california
Dec 02 01:57:23 <Solarbaby> I was at a friends house
Dec 02 02:50:52 <Solarbaby> Wish there some talkative OpenWrt enthusiasts out there tonight
Dec 02 02:53:32 <mwester-laptop> They don't hang about here AFAIK.  They might be found on the openwrt channel, or mailing list.
Dec 02 02:59:33 <Solarbaby> Thanks!  
Dec 02 02:59:56 <DogBoy> is it like two guys or what
