We should circle back in a couple of weeks and add some of these things you’ve learned to the wiki.
Yes, let's do that at some point.
Not there yet, I haven't went through anything yet about the x11vnc or xwindows stuff for the WS-WVHL.
But I am back on the WS-WVHL unit today in preparation of the Terastation 3400.
And I did sudo apt-get install default-jdk on this one to get the java loaded. You said in the other thread that python is already installed with your installer. What else do I have to do to prep the TS-WVHL so to get the 3400 loading the debian?
Will installing java on these terastations slow them down at all?
Because the TS-WVHL unit does not have a uEFI BIOS (there's no mention of BIOS boot or uEFI boot in the BIOS settings), I don't understand how the Buffalo Linux OS stock firmware install was able to get past the 2tb MBR/BIOS barrier eiter. It apparently has fully allocated and formatted a pair of 3tb drives, using all their space. The system boots fine to your new Debian 10.3. The drives are GPT too.

I need to test this out and fill it up, and see if that's actually right.
How do I actually share out the /mnt/array partition using Debian? Do I have to install samba? Or does your installer put it on there? I was hoping I could do a quick test, but don't know how to make a basic share.
I have to read up on OpenMediaVault, I think I am going to try that out on this box eventually- until I can get used to linux.
I did install webmin on the WS-WVHL today, using the steps in the debian on linkstation video. But again, I need to do more reading...
