Well, it only took me buying a house and getting it wired with CAT 5, but I finally have my Rio Central up. As it happens, I'm now trying to upgrade my server's operating system. I want to backup about 20Gb of data. I was thinking that since I have about 35 gigs of (currently) empty network storage, it would be a great place for a temporary backup device during upgrade. It would also help for getting the mp3s off the device if I ever want to later.

I'd like to get telnet and one or more services running on the Rio Central probably in the following order of preference:
Samba
FTP
nfs

Who's got some good info on getting started? I've seen scant info on hacking the Central. Obviously due to the quite smaller user base. I have a keyboard attached right now and have already dropped into the shell.

How similar is it to putting a full distribution on the empeg car? Any tips would be appreciated. I'm not a Linux guru, but I know enough to be dangerous.

How cool would it be to have a Hijack type kernel for this device?
