Loving my Plug!! I have a SheevaPlug running the standard UBUNTU distro as the OS. I have moved the RFS to an SD card using the excellent instructions in the FAQ.
Problem: Recently my SD card failed. (lots of input output errors on command execution.) I use the Plug currently as a webserver and a NAS. So lots of data passing back and forth. Was thinking I should use a hard disk as the RFS as a way to up reliability.
My Stab at a solution: I want to use my USB Passport drive as the Root file system. I have a powered hub and it mounts fine. I hope I am simply missing something as I assume most people would want to have the RFS on a larger drive. Or is it the case that you base the web on the hard drive and the RFS does not matter?
Questions: Is this the right thing to do? i.e. even if it is possible, would the experts recommend another way of using storage on my Plug? Is there a definitive FAQ to show me the steps to doing this?
Sorry if this is a newbe question or there is another place that addresses this and I havent found it.. Matthew
