	Reinstalled yesterday due to a few issues, mainly that i added a DVD-ROM to the core and changed the networking setup to reflect more accurately the setup described [http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Internal_LAN_setup here]. The only thing I did differently was disable wireless on the internet router. I tried a PXE boot of my MD but got the kernel panic at the network card error i've seen mentioned on the forums a few times. As i'll be using VDR, i've been told I should do a proper install of MCE on the MD, which i'll be doing tonight. I've got a potential diskless MD which is an old shuttle system, so i'll look into PXE booting a bit more then.

			Update (20/02/09) :
			Having a few problems with my MD setup so i'm concentrating on my core for now. As I have a slow internet connection, I installed squid on my core and wrote a wiki page for anyone that's [http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Squid interested]

	For my core I'm using some existing hardware. It's a Gigabyte Nforce 3 socket 939 board (i'll get the model later) with 1GB ram and a 4200 X2 CPU which i've just bought to give it some more horsepower. Disk-wise it's got a 250G IDE drive and a couple of 80GB sata drives which are currently striped. Still not sure what to do ~~here~~, i'll probably make a decision once I see what LMCE's raid capabilities are like.		For my core I'm using some existing hardware.

	Got the system built yesterday but didn't have time to test it fully. Install went smoothly for the most part (I had trouble seeing a couple of the lists, and lmce couldn't determine my timezone), however when I moved the core into the office where it'll live, it didn't like the fact that i changed from a USB to PS/2 mouse. Will investigate this tonight!		Got the system built yesterday but didn't have time to test it fully.
