Received my MkII Empeg this morning :-) I now have to wait 'til I get home to clone the MkI, and install it in my car...
In the mean time... I've installed the developer version 1.0 build, and installed the ARM Debian tar file. I can rlogin and ftp onto the empeg now!
What webserver/streaming software do people recommend running? I think Apache is probably overkill, and too memory hungry.
I have a couple of questions:
1. Security - When I'm at work, I want to plug the empeg into the LAN here (I have a machine with no USB support, and giving out shell accounts on my car stereo will impress the other geeks here). What I want to avoid is someone else on the network (accidentally or otherwise) using emplode to modify my playlists. How about some sort of authentication?
2. Quit player from GUI. At the moment I have to use a serial cable to quit the player and run chroot etc. to get my Debian environment running. Are there any plans to allow this to be done from the GUI on the developers version, e.g. another menu option.
I better do some real work now before I get sacked!
