Efika arrived!
|
Small package inside ;)
|
Small motherboard ^^
|
small motherboard next to a big power supply :P
|
A Radeon 7500 with a big heat sink (to replace the noisy fan)
|
Efika with a 2nd hand 12GB harddisk
|
I put a pin to understand the size :p
|
Finally, a "case" for my Efika: the box where it came shipped ^^;
|
I bought an AC-adaptor type power supply, but it's a bit big, so I'll need extra height
|
The case, almost finished.
|
The front of the "case"
|
Installing Debian. I've tried several USB keyboards, and PS2-USB converters, but they won't work. Finally, I got this Nec keyboard working.
|
Similarly, I tried several USB memory devices, but they were not recognized. Finally, the PSP saved my life ;)
|
The installation takes almost 2 hours, so I leave my desk :P
|
Finally, GDM! I booted into the system ;)
|
Gnome in a BOX (literally!)
|
Efika + Debian + Fluxbox + MorflOX style
|
I installed some leds and a reset button. No power button, because for this AC-type PSU, it's better to unplug (it makes a weird noise when off and plugged...)
|
The HD and the power leds in action ;)
|
The cables went inside the low board. That white box is the Efika, my home server now ;)
