I have read that you can install Linux on a Linksys NSLU2
network-attached-storage device. If you were to attach some high
capacity hard drives to the USB2 ports, would it be possible to use
this device as a master backend? As for the tuner cards, put them
in another machine and have this backend wake them up via
wake-on-LAN. Store recordings on the USB2 external HDDs attached
to this NSLU2 so that they are always available for remote frontends.<br>

Has anyone tried something like this?<br>

I read that the master backend must have a tuner card; but then in that
FAQ page, it says a tuner is not required in the backend.<br>
