What you should keep in mind in when picking your board of choice: - Freenet needs a reasonably powerful CPU. Multicore is a big plus, since Freenet is threaded heavily. - Freenet needs *lots* of RAM (don't even think about <512MiB boards). I'd go for one with 2GiB, though 1GiB may work just fine when Freenet is configured conservatively and without WoT/Sone/… - Freenet will (at least in its current state) be quite heavy on (random) I/O, up to *very* heavy when using plugins such as WoT. I've been thinking about running Freenet on one of those cheap Android "TV sticks" that can be had from China for about €35. I still haven't made my final decision on that, though: not all seem to accept custom Linux installation equally well. Please keep us informed on what you end up using and how it works out for you. — Bert _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
