Silvan, I would highly recommend pcengines.ch instead. They are quickly available (usually shipped the next day after ordering) from a Swiss store, and so far they are the cheapest linux boxes that I could find. I'm using them exactly for the same purpose - as ssh jumphosts :)
http://linux.voyage.hk/ is a flavor of Debian specifically tailored for these boxes. It mounts the root in read-only mode by default, so your CF storage is written only when needed. here I put a few related notes in my blog: http://txlab.wordpress.com/tag/voyage-linux/ >________________________________ > From: Silvan M.
