Yes, so what I need is something like:
- description - expected behaviour - hardware used - how to build and install the software
... for all four boards. The sooner we have something, the sooner I can start.
Does that make sense, Darren?
Darren (or someone else can correct me.. but what I'm doing now)
Board: RouterStationPro Purpose: NAS and boot server for other board Features: - Contains file server for multimedia and other files - Can serve files via: - NFS - http
http isn't needed. (the DLNA server will mount the files over NFS into its filesystem and Mediatomb runs it's own http server on a special port to server up the files to the media renderers).
- tftp (likely needed if the other boards need to network boot) - ftp (maybe)
No need.
- Will act as THE authoritation DHCP server for the network of boards - no DNS on the network (is it needed?)
No DNS needed, runs over multicast, and we can specify the NFS server with a dotted quad.
Software: - From the meta-demo, build the poky-image-nas with the machine target of the routerstationpro (thats the goal, but there might be some custom config files in the end.. still working on it)
