Almost There.

Almost two years have gone by since I last updated the site, we have migrated from a plain HTML site that had to be edited and managed using vim to the previous template but using nanoblogger as the back end for content manager. There are still some issues that I need to address like maintaining the same CSS between the old content and the new content... ultimately the old content will need to be migrated.

I have also been working on a picasa albums plug-in that I will release as soon as it gets properly tested. The ability to have a multilingual content is also something that I have been thinking of.

In 2 weeks I should finally have internet at home and should not need to 'borrow' it from my neighbors, by then I should be working again in to getting a gentoo stage3 of the latest release possible for the NSLU2.

Spanish version: Ya casi estamos listos.

Linux on the NSLU2

The Linksys NSLU2 (aka "slug") is sold as a NAS device but in reality it is much more useful than that. It is a complete, cheap, embedded Linux system. Best of all is the fact that the official Linksys firmware uses the Linux kernel, and so Linksys released the source code. This led to some excellent custom firmware projects like Unslung and OpenSlug.

Spanish version:Linux en el NSLU2.
