Today my chromium crashed like this:

Today I finally finished figuring out how to configure the Raspberry Pi OS as a network router. I got routing, NAT port forwarding, and DHCP services configured. The gory details are here: ‘glam‘.

Linux books
Intel PCI Vendor ID: 8086

New books
Ordered on Amazon today:
- Understanding the Linux Kernel 3e: From I/O Ports to Process Management
- Linux Device Drivers 3e
- Linux Network Administrator’s Guide 3e
