Mark you have brought up an interesting point I hadn't considered before. I was planning to administer the box via SSH and/or by connecting it to a KVM and using it as a normal desktop (if I installed a GUI).

What I hadn't planned on was web GUI access to anything other than SB Server. Having a nice Tomato GUI on there would be awesome though.

Anyone know the best approach to accomplishing this? In other words, all goals. Using the ZBOX PC, with a fast booting and complete enough Debian install to support the requirements I've already covered, plus install a Web GUI like Tomato? Or Tomato itself if it could be added on top of Debian to control everything I would otherwise have to edit by hand in various config files.
