Is MinimServer capable to run on a Synology DSM 3.x device? (USB Station 2)

It appears that for some reason DSM 3.2 on the USB Station 2 doesn't include the Package Center (see this thread). There is a Package Center in DSM 3.2 for other Synology models.

Will try again tonight, but not sure if this is going to be possible (any suggestion here?)

You would need to have a good knowledge of Linux and Synology DSM internals to successfully install Java and MinimServer in this way. I haven't attempted this myself.

I don't think this would help because there isn't an ipkg version of MinimServer.
