SMB won't automatically show up as an option for a Time Machine drive. The
version of netatalk in unstable/testing is 2.1.2, and supports the Time
Machine extensions OS X expects. It's seamless. It works beautifully
running on x86, not at all on PPC. While I am aware of more manual
workarounds, I'm trying to get the seamless and automatic approach to work
first.
