So, I mean as well about 30 Mb/sec, so a bit below stock. Rear USB's are working very fine, Sata working fine (~80mb/s). You can trigger the LED's in /sys/class/led/... so the language I think dosen't matter. For Installing Debian: You need to change the uBoot env., as I remember you can boot everything from SATA / FAT partition, or you flash kernel and Initrd to the nand. Baby Peacemaker - Debian
Hey MacFaulty, I more or less quit to work on the KD20, as the performace is not as good as expectet. LED's are working, and controlable, but someone has to write a script or so for it. USB 3.0 , and Cardreader are not working so far as I know: USB device's are showing up, but you can not read them. So, if you can work without usb3.0, cardreader and filetransfers max ~30 mby Peacemaker - Debian

Thats nice, besides the KD20 is a sh*thole :-) Besides arm11, I have now idea(no idea to test) and the flashsize is only 128mb (I know the secs said 1Gb).

Hey, First, I some how have stopped (maybe stalled) to look deeper into the KD20 as I have at the moment not the time and efford to do so (and have a good working debian NAS RN102) @Fritsbenik So one thing is you might clean up your /etc/modules as they are integrated in the Kernel already.

I bought as I'm not very pleased with my KD20 the NETGEAR RN102 For now I'm really happy with it. From time to time you get it for about 90€ at Amazon (Short time Deal).
