That doesn’t really matter since you use ext3 and only one disk.
Flip a coin? 😉
The read me file goes on about ‘if you want to connect a drive later’ scenario with unslung 6.x it’s ‘easier’ if the original install with one HDD was done through port 2.
“For new users, the following guidelines can help:
– if you have only a single drive that will be formatted by the NSLU2,
use port 2.
– if you have a single drive that will be formatted by the NSLU2, and
all other drives or flash devices will be either FAT or NTFS, use
port 2.
– if you have two drives, and both will be formatted by the NSLU2, then
unsling to the drive in port 1.
If you unsling to port 2, and later add a drive in port 1 that will
be formatted by the NSLU2, it will work as expected — however, the
drive to be added MUST be formatted by the unslung NSLU2 in question,
and once formatted, the drive must NOT be removed. (The Linksys code
will move it’s “conf” datafiles to the drive in port 1 during the
format operation, and thus will become dependent upon the presence of
both drives for proper operation.)
3) The external disk that you use as the target for package installation must
be (or have previously been) formatted by the NSLU2.
