Hi Guillaume,

Thanks (for this and for the project).

I’ll see you on #amahi (and now #greyhole) on irc.freenode.net

Must be lonely being the only dev on the project. I wish I could help more… .

There is no dev list per-say, being the only developer…
But I’m in #greyhole, on Freenode, as Mouton.

Fantastic! Just what I have been looking for

Is there a mailing list / forum / newsgroup where development discussion is taking place? Maybe a good-ol’fashioned IRC channel?

I’m having a few hick-ups getting it (insert latest version of GH) installed on my fresh Ubuntu 10 (server) box. Don’t really want to open a whole new “issue” on the tracker for it as I believe it’s just me being a bit slow this morning.

Anyway, I digress. Great project, looking forward to testing the heck out of it!

I have been waiting for this for a long time. I glad someone finally committed to this project. I want total success for you and hope it spreads quickly. However, I believe in order for that to happen, you must change the name. Every time I read this page, all I can think of is “A-hole”. I worry that this may put off many would be users and slow down adoption of this awesome achievement.

Something to think about.

Thanks again,

Jeff

[...] SiteMap December 17, 20095:24 am Greyhole: Windows Home Server Drive Extender for Linux Like Windows Home Server’s Drive Extender file technology, but want it on your Linux box? Greyhole is now available to all avid enthusiasts who would like to try it. It’s Windows Home Server Drive Extender concept, but open source, running on Linux. “Greyhole is an application that uses Samba to create a storage pool of all your available hard drives (whatever their size, however they’re connected), and allows you to create redundant copies of the files you store, in order to prevent data loss when part of your hardware fails.” So if you’re fed up with Windows 2003 Server overhead you’re now using just to get Drive Extender functionalities, or if you were waiting for an open source version to use it, or if you’d just like to help me… Start on the link below, and follow instructions in the INSTALL file, stated.
