Neat project. I take it that the Raspberry Pi doesn't have any problem powering the USB WiFi adapter (i.e., you aren't using a powered usb hub)?

Not this one, but I also don't have any other USB devices on the board, either. It does become problematic if you start adding devices above and beyond this one.

As an aside, the download link is live. It will require an 8GB card to burn it to.

Sounds like a plan. My Pi has been sitting at work for a couple of weeks now, doing nothing; just been too busy to do anything with it.

So, a more up-to-date version of the steps, complete with test results (And progress for the on-going project), you can go here:
