Hi,
just registered, because my chase after a Dockstar here in Germany seem to lead to nothing.
Sold out, too expensive nearly 100€ for a used case, buying in U.S. no option due to charges, custom fees and shipping...
So I decided to give Dockstar's successor, the GoFlex net a chance. I'd need a 1 TB HDD later anyway. One USB for a Debian USB Stick would be OK, or better a USB Hub to connect a Webcam or a DVB Stick later...
But my efforts to find a "noob-proof how to" always end up in this one thread here in this forum: http://plugboxlinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=382&sid=8e27df1de336ea4a9d31c4d533f715e0
But I'm not really sure about the first steps. The Dockstar Wikis and How-tos tell very detailed, when to disconnect from internet, when to boot and what commands to run.
My Linux know how is good, but when it comes to UBoot, serial consoles, brick warnings, I get careful. But googleing and reading forums haven't helped me up to now. May be GoFlex net and debian is still too new to be idiot proof.
Question would be: can Jeff Doozans How to for the Dockstar adopted 1 : 1?
Or must I install a Linux in NAND memory as described in Peaslaker's WiKi entry?
Or should I just wait some weeks until community has found a secure, realitvely easy way to do this?
Thanks for any information
best regards
Peter
