Bump:
ll you need is a thumb drive or do a diskless frontend setup. If anybody picks one of these up let me know how you like it.

i just got mine, i may try and put it together this weekend and take a few pictures or video to share.

is it possible to make my main mythbox (mythbuntu 9.10) become a backend server ? i rememebr in the initial setup i was asked if i wanted to make this a machine to serve shows to other front ends and i picked no. now i want to, is there an easy way to do this ? well, easy way to do it without trashing the system. otherwise i will just wit until version 10.4 comes out.

also, how does one run mythbuntu from a usb ? do i just use somethig like Unetbootin to make a live usb drive ? or do i install it form one usb drive to a different usb drive in the system.
