Thought Stream — week of 14 Feb 2011
Bad ass - http://goo.gl/oj9CU
Thinking of setting up a NAS server using archlinux.
Decided to give Capistrano a pass. Using Fabric for automated deployments.
Redis is freakishly fast for auto suggests provided you give it enough RAM. Getting instant suggests with 3 million dummy strings.
Spent an insane amount of time trying to fix a USB Grub booting issue when the real problem was with the BIOS. Flashing it fixed it.
Now on to installing Arch Linux on a 4 Gb pen drive for the NAS server.
Finally, my NAS is ready with Arch Linux running on an thumb drive of 4 Gb. Phew, adventurous weekend :).
