Expanding the NSLU2 even further
To keep your system up to date, occasionally do an "ipkg update" followed by an "ipkg list" to see what new packages are available. If you're ambitious, build some of your own and contribute to the effort!
As a last step in the Unslung process, the developers would appreciate feedback. Just go to the NSLU2 Yahoo page and enter your experiences.
As cool as Unslung is, it's not the final step in the evolution of the NSLU2 from a dedicated NAS box to an Open Source application platform. In my next article, I'll describe the results of efforts currently underway to expand the NSLU2's horizons to over 1500 applications!
In the meantime, you can keep up with my activities on my Linux on the NSLU2 page or check out the NSLU2 Linux development group site.
