Hello List

I am trying to build a web server at home, after acquiring a domain
name for my website below. Also, I would like to set up a bit torrent
client to download files in the background.

I am relatively new to OpenBSD and BBB but I have managed to
install the snapshot at
http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/armv7/ to a microSD
card and to boot into OpenBSD, using a Linux laptop connected with
a USB/RS232 adaptor to the BBB and using "screen" as the terminal.

I have also installed OpenBSD to my desktop and managed to set up
Apache for testing but to get it and BitTorrent running on the BBB I
need some large external storage like a USB external HDD. I
understand the armv7 port does not support USB on the BBB yet so
I wonder how to implement a removable drive so that I can
occasionally add files to the Apache document dir and move torrent
downloads to my desktop.

Any chance of installing on the built-in emmc drive and using the SD
card for storage? Can I install a more recent snap than the one at
the ftp servers? Latest one seems to be October 30.

My thanks in advance.
