ok. so like with Scott's help i am going to make the transition from a windows 2000 advanced Server to a Linux based server...
...big job O-o;;
I was just goung to take the HTPC that is out of date and use it - I just spent better part of several hours modding a case and installing the Mobo and a bunch of fans...well..i look at it and think this:
The Mobo to the windows box has 4 IDE chains for a total of 8 drives - the one for the HTPC will take 4 IDE drive and 2 Sata - I know better...the Sata is a raid array and will be problematic with Linux...Sooooo...I will take the 3200+ CPU, its 1gig Dual Channel ram and put them in the windows server ten use that mobo to make the Linux server..makes for a lot more work but i"ll have better airflow in the server case and better upgrade/drive space...
Also started helping Joe pull the transmision out of his truck..owowow..i cut the crap out of my thumb..at least its on the other hand from the nice cut i got from replacing the clutch in my truck...Sighs...
