Wookey:
Yours seems the best offer for the LE machine so please set it up, and tell this list when it's installed. Any idea when this could happen?
Well, this week is a tough one to get any work done in the USA. :) Does some time the week of January 2nd work?
Debian machines are traditionally named after composers, but any unique name will do. (Check against this list: http://db.debian.org/machines.cgi to avoid duplicates). I'm not aware of a spec for what software should be on dev-accessible machines, but chroots for stable, testing and unstable would presumably be good.
The board will boot to stable; chroots will be created as needed. It will sit a short distance from an OC3 line, and a not so far distance from the indiana.edu mirror so bandwidth (both supply and demand) won't be a problem.
I'll also install distcc and cross-compilers on the PIII-550 SMP machine right next to it. That won't be much faster in terms of compilation, but every little bit helps. :)
