I mailed supp...@seagate.com support, see if i get a response ...
anyway, a link to installing debian (and a forum): http://jeff.doozan.com/debian/ thanks, erez. > If you keep the original firmware, the original unit runs the pogoplug > software, but the license is only for 1 year. perpetual license is $30 more. > > Udi > > >> Price was "100$", which did not include S&H. >> >> -- >> Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is >> http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's >> tzaf...@cohens.org.il | | best >> tzaf...@debian.org | | friend >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Linux-il mailing list >> Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il >> http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il >> > > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-il mailing list > Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il > http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il > >
