Hi,
I'm using Owncloud since few month, but with the web interface calendar is
not really useful
I'm looking for a simple caldav client, but I can't find one.
Do you have any idea which client can I use?
I'm searching a simple client, not like evolution who need a mailbox
activated.
Thanks you

Mark,
The easiest way I am aware of (not used) for that is Knoppix to USB. If I

Francesco,
If your RAID is mdadm based, I would use a live CD and then chroot into
your installed OS. Once in, I would use grub-install /dev/sd? to add the
