Harddrive use….
-
It the hdd activity light starts flashing often again, I'll retry those commands and post the results.
As a note, it didn't seem to matter if my connection was idle or active either.

when in doubt reboot;). How long after you reboot does it do this?
Memory glitch??…it's a guess.

I have the same problem. The HDD activity flashes all the time. And it starts right after boot.
I use Beta 3 and have no extra packages installed. -
what's your amount of ram?

I use Beta 3 and have no extra packages installed.I had a similar problem ages ago with a 0.8 series. Turned out that the firewall couldn't resolve the ntp server address because the dns servers were not right/reachable.
So my advice is just search for anything thats wrong.

- Will this be an issue when I move to a CF card?
Apparently you can tell the system to mount the CF card r/o and only mount it r/w while a config change happens.
To do that you put the single word wrap into /etc/platform
echo wrap > /etc/platform
But that made no difference for me even after a restart.

it's not "wrap" anymore, it was changed to "embedded" some time ago

mount / -o remount,rw
doesn't do it. (yeah I'm a linux hoe) -
/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
/etc/rc.conf_mount_ro -
Use Diagnostics -> Edit file from the webConfigurator, it does this automatically when you save the file.
