No, I have a Western Digital that I bought myself.

I installed an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server edition on a FitPC2i rev 1.2 three months ago, from the standard Ubuntu ISO. I'm not using any specific apt repository. Everything works fine, there is no instabilities whatsoever, and installation process through a USB thumb drive was as easy as it could be. I...

As far as I know, the fit-pc cannot boot on the SD card. The Fit-PC2i v1.2 (newest revision) supports booting from SDHC according to the wiki: http://www.fit-pc2.com/wiki/index.php?title=Fit-PC2i_Revisions Oh, right, I didn't know that.

Can you tell me what's different about the FitPC2 image from the stock Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server installation? Can't I just install the stock one and make any required changes? (Provided, of course, that I can get a list of the changes!) Having to wait for some volunteer to update a custom compiled k...

What power source do you use to power up the fan you use on the heatsink ?

Hi, I'm trying to buy a fit-pc2i rev. 1.2 (i need wake on lan and auto-on), with fit-vga adaptator (i have no dvi or hdmi screen/tv) and probably heat-sink. I'm in France and the only reseller proposing affordable deals seems to be amazon.fr (VAT is already included in their prices and there is no s...
