Linksys sells a $99 ARM-based networking appliance for USB drives called 
the NSLU2 (or "Slug") which has 2 USB ports and an Ethernet port. Even 
though it only has 32Mb RAM, it is capable of running a complete Debian 
installation (with 2.6.x kernel), and the Debian Etch installer now 
supports installation to it directly (via SSH). I have an old 20Gb 
external USB drive which might be perfect for this.
