RE: Running MinimServer on a plug computer
Just a little update on this I installed NFS support and mounted the ReadyNAS share containing my music to the SheevaPlug. It works! - well it didnt all go as smoothly and quickly the first sentence might imply but I got it running anyway
Not surprisingly, the performance isn't the greatest on a sizable collection (7500 albums here) but I'd say that the Sheevaplug could be a perfect Server-solution for anyone holding no more than say a 1000 albums, in which case attaching a USB-drive might be the better solution than mapping a network drive if you can install Minim "natively" on that network drive, be it a NAS or a Computer. bbrip |

For best performance, the ideal setup is to run MinimServer on the same computer/NAS that holds your music, if possible. This means that MinimServer needs to support ReadyNAS, and I'm hoping to have some good news about this soon. |
