[QUOTE="sn34ky, post: 480114, member: 96074"] Hi all, I'm new to MediaPortal, coming from windows media center. During experimenting i found out that's it's possible to run MediaPortal on computers without a harddisk or any kind of local storage. I'm now sharing this knowledge because over the internet lots of people are interested in running computers without harddisks due to power savings and less noise from the client pc (mediaportal client). I've used the program CCBoot on the pc where my tv server is running and my 2 diskless clients boot from the tv server over the lan. And it works without any stuttering, even while playing x264 over the same lan. I'm assuming those who are interested will figure out how ccboot or any similar software works, else i'll be happy to post a little howto. Good luck to those who are interested! [/QUOTE]
