Any way to just open a file-mangler on both and drag files back and forth?
It's the only way I do it, mostly (sans mouse) using mc and fcl, which work with or without working GUI:
(man) nfs
for exporting native Linux filesystems (through /etc/exports), which can be mounted just like any other native mounting is done, using fstab entries or other methods for routine ones, and 'mount -t nfs' for the non-routine.
I like the mouse, and GUI, but the main problem that I see is the speed i.e. the LACK of any! Getting about 3 MB/s on a 80gb image file :-( Is your network hardware gigabit, or just "Fast Ethernet" (100Mb/s)?
it's wifi: 7 hours for an 80gb image, not what I had in mind :-) the cheapest router I could find and a usually usb wifi adapter but on the laptop this was with the built-in onboard whatever only because I haven't physically cut its wires yet
meaning 100 megabits per second, not megabytes per second. Actual speed about 10 MB/s or 10 mega bytes per second.
looks more like a half-breed, something between 5 MB/s and a dead dog, I had initially envisaged moving 2tb image files :-)))) will have to work down my expectations, or as eastwood would say: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG2cux_6Rcw
