pogoplugV2
Hi Guys
Running Arch on my pogopig at the moment , using motion with a webcam.
It using a 8GB USB stick, I have, which I dont use, a 150GB HD in a USB
caddy.
Can I get Deb arm running on that, Arch is OK , but its got some
strange behaviour, and I'm reasonably familiar with Debian as I run
Mint on both machines here.
What I'd like to do is,
continue using Motion on it, but also be able to use it for back up
from both the other computers, and maybe for my sons, but that would
mean some form of FTP, secure, remote access.
Am I right that it would run a little faster with a USB HD than using
the USB memory stick, I'd be able to a swap partion on it without
problems.
Or am I dreaming in cloud cuckoo land as normal :)
The pogopig is V2 , and running ARM5 arch at the moment.
One thing that gave problems with Arch was it would only use 2.7GB of
the stick until I upgraded the kernel to later than 3.10.
Is the install procedure similar, mount the usb hd and down load a
tarball and then unpack,,
Some words of wisdom appreciated
Thanks
