I like Linux in embedded devices which allows people to do huge amount of tasks with simple and low power consuming devices. I'd like to publish my experiences and trivial guides to enhance such devices.
DealExtreme NAS is based on STR8100 processor which is an ARM architecture capable to run Linux. This processor is used in cheap USB NAS servers which is available on ebay for nearly $40 and due to Linux usage it is capable to do a lot of things.
