Can anyone recommend some hardware which meets the following criteria:
USB port (more than 1 would be handy but an USB hub could always be used)
Suitable for running a reasonably small linux distribution (no gui needed. Want to run mysql and some other custom bits. I'm not quite sure how one goes about installing linux and configuring on a device without a video out? )
Reasonably small (thinking a small router)
Low power consumption (less than 10W. Ideally closer to 1W)
Just a little background- I'm currently working on some home automation projects and having some usb/serial devices I want to capture data from and log to mySQ
interestingly that was on the frontpage of a forum i visit earlier (although the forum has very little to do with home automation- so it's entirely coincidental)- looks very promising although i'm very impatient! :) – Lee Tickett – 2011-12-27T15:23:45.067
