Frau Klein wanted a server at home for her lifestream and me being lazy and the such didn't do much for a while. Till I got the great idea of turning my eeepc 701 4g into a server. I blew away the install with eeebuntu. Pro tip, use a decent external usb cd/dvd rom drive to install it. Or else go read the docs on how to make a bootable usb memory stick.
I chose to install eeebuntu netbook remix, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. I probably should have just installed the base version to save space, but I have a spare 8gb SDHC card for the eeepc anyway. It's configured so that my /home is on the SDHC card.

I'm using the dyndns.com dynamic dns service, which gets automagically updated as my WAN addresses changes every 24hrs. The Linksys WRTG router that I have, which I have flashed with the tomato firmware handles all this automatically. As a side effect of all this, I have a nice little fairly power efficient machine that I can ssh to from anywhere in the world and I get a mirror of my blog locally.
