| G | hads: those NUCs sound interesting, where did you get yours from? | 01:05 |
|---|---|---|
| hads | G: Ingram | 02:10 |
| G | hads: ahhh right, essentially direct, got a mild case of envy now :) | 03:13 |
| lifeless | hads: is it quiet ? | 03:17 |
| hads | G: I can hook you up :) | 08:44 |
| hads | lifeless: I haven't had a chance to even plug it in yet, will report back. | 08:44 |
| hads | It feels and looks really nice though. | 08:44 |
| hads | lifeless: There's a silentpcreview review of it saying that it's basically inaudible so that says something. | 08:47 |
| G | hads: whats the story re: storage? or can it do something fancy like boot-from-iscsi direct from the BIOS? | 08:49 |
| G | hads: if I'm not mistaken from what I'm reading, mSATA? | 08:57 |
| hads | G: Yeah, mSATA | 09:23 |
| hads | This one has a 40GB Intel module in it. | 09:24 |
| lifeless | 40GB lol | 09:29 |
| lifeless | I am considering something like that as a ancilliary video store | 09:29 |
| G | hads: that sounds quite neat to be honest | 09:29 |
| lifeless | would want das of 200GB or so, plus networked for all the big stuff :) | 09:30 |
| G | hads: I purchased a Synology NAS the other month so it'd fit in nice | 09:30 |
| G | hmmm the manual is interesting compatibility matrix for BIOS recovery specifically says that BIOS Recovery via 1.4MB Floppy is unsupported | 09:39 |
| G | hads: one crazy thing I'd be interested when you get it going, is if KVM is really supported on it (i.e. vmx in /proc/cpuinfo, and what not), ark.intel.com says that the CPU does, not sure if I believe it or not :) | 09:44 |
| lifeless | G: cpu will, whether its bios supported is another q :) | 09:45 |
| G | lifeless: hence the believe it or not | 09:45 |
| lifeless | :) | 09:45 |
| G | lifeless: to be honest, knowing Intel, I'd expect it to be there | 09:46 |
| G | but as anyone who knows me well would say, I could be easily admitted to cynics anonymous | 09:47 |
| hads | This will probably end up running XBMC I imagine. All storage here is off a server so nothing over about 10G is needed for clients. | 10:50 |
| hads | Will check the VM capability when I run it up. | 10:50 |
| hads | I was just going to run it off a 4GB USB stick to start with but the 40GB mSATA came in a bundle so went with it. | 10:51 |
| hads | morning | 11:02 |

| olly | morning | 19:53 |
| mwhudson | olly, ojwb: did you find a cloning machine? | 19:53 |
| thumper | morning | 20:15 |
| olly | mwhudson: sadly not | 20:16 |
| olly | this one is in screen on a colo box - my laptop disk seems to have scrambled itself... | 20:17 |
| olly | currently just taking a copy of the disk partition to a USB drive, which takes a while | 20:18 |
| olly | i should probably sort out an irc bouncer so I can use one account from multiple places | 20:20 |
| ibeardslee | ohh my odroid just arrived | 21:17 |
| hads | ibeardslee: Oh cool! | 21:35 |
| ibeardslee | didn't order the power supply (didn't want the US plug) so will need to track one down at some stage before I can play with it. | 21:44 |
| olly | just twist the pins with pliers! | 21:53 |
| hads | ibeardslee: What type of supply? | 23:15 |
| ibeardslee | 5v 2A some piddly tiny socket | 23:33 |
| ajmitch | so a bit more than USB would supply, pity | 23:39 |
