There was some wylug-help traffic about my Mini-ITX backup server
dying, so I bought a Slug (Linksys NSLU2) and a couple of external USB
cases. Installing Debian and LVM was interesting -- there's no
connection for a monitor, so you have to do it remotely using ssh.

It's a very slow PC, for instance it can't saturate a 100MB network
connection, but I now have three quarters of a Terrabyte of silent
backup storage on the corner of my desk:

Cool?
