Re: USB attached storage on Qube2?

Yes, and I got no-where at all with it. There was a lot of patching this that 
and the other, botched kernels and so on. I eventually got it to work, but 
for the life of me could not mount a USB key. I don't even remember what I 
did now... Whilst USB printer support worked, CUPS wouldn't build correctly 
so the idea of a print server went out the window too.

Tried a CF card as a boot drive a couple of years back, ran into problems with 
swap and logging. Maybe use a standard drive for those, but keep solid state 
for boot?

On a more blasphemous note (just to prove hardware, you understand), did try 
installing Deb**n on a Qube2 with good results on the USB front!
