@deavmi when looking for wifi cards see if you can get ones which have open source drivers. Typically Atheros. -

@deavmi on client devices, like laptops, I expect some Debian based distro. -
Bob Mottram (bashrc)'s status on Saturday, 09-Jan-2016 10:21:18 EST Bob Mottram
@deavmi currently it's Debian 8 (jessie) -

@deavmi yes, provided that your old machines can boot from USB -

@deavmi #Freedombone mesh is currently purely wifi, so you access it you would run a command on your laptop. -

@deavmi 500GB is massively overpowered for the needs of a mesh router. You could probably install it on 8GB or maybe even 4. -

@deavmi it's not part of the current installation, although I have had it running in the past -

@deavmi on #Freedombone it is possible to set a static IP, but for mesh it's best for that just to be automatic -

@deavmi that would be a good use for old machines. They don't need to be very fast or have much storage and could be obtained cheaply -

@deavmi are you using old desktop machines? -

I'm not sure if non-interactive configuration of GNU Social will work, but I can try it. -

@deavmi yes, simplified -

Maybe I can automate the setup of #gnusocial more -

I should take some screen shots of setting up #Freedombone -
