I'd be up for doing that.  I don't think it would take me that long to 
set up and get working.  I installed a Dell server from net boot a while 
back (it wouldn't boot from the CD?)  It took longer to install a DHCP 
and TFTPBOOT server than to set up the boot image.

But I don't have an unslung NSLU2.  Cool idea if I ever get one though.
