I have not written anything for a long time. A current period is tough for me because of my studies. So, I have quite a little time to play around with my hardware. However, I am still have some projects and news. My some CPUs which I bought long time ago just arriving now :). I guess that I'll not post any new photos until June.
My VIA VT-310DP board is working again :). It is now powered with PicoPSU. It does not fit entirely into ATX power connector because of one big capacitor near it, however, the system boots without any problems. I am planning to make a small NAS server from it. Because of this I bought D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router. It works already at home. Yet again, I haven't done any tests. I don't know which OS I'll use for my server, however, last night I installed NetBSD with ftp install (where is no CD-ROM, so it was the most easiest way). OS resides on 16 GB Patriot Xporter XT Boost USB flash drive. Hard drives will be used only for storage, however, I still waiting for them (famous Seagate's with bad firmware, but I got them quite cheap, so I'm taking the risk). Whether I'll use or not NetBSD depends on how successfully I'll manage to make my tasks on it (sharing, back-up, network, print server, RAID). Thats all for now.
