GigaLANdisk
Thanks to all the people who sent me some RSS files that
contained snippets from my blog's lost entries, but I don't
feel like digging stuff out of these files, esp. as some entries
are truncated. So, let's just call them gone, and I hope to come
up with SOME backup for the future.
Which brings me right to the topic... I've stumbled across the
GigaLANdisk, which is a network attached
storage device that would be ideal for backup purposes.
Of course that's nice and everything, but why do I write this here
in my NetBSD blog? Well, guess what! Even as the device seems
to run Linux natively (...), it also
runs NetBSD,
see
the dmesg output.
Status of the NetBSD/landisk port is available in Japanese (only, sorry --
no, i cannot read it either ;)
here,
and there's some patches etc. on NaoBSD.
Actually I found this whole thing after someone mentioned
NaoBSD on some list
the other day, and there's quite a funny selection of things.
I hope they get integrated into NetBSD rather sooner than later...
