- Why would you install squeeze packages on ReadyNAS OS 6?
ReadyNAS OS 6 uses Debian Wheezy/Sid. I'd probably install the Wheezy package - because the non-free version on unrar was available on squeeze. does the non-free version of unrar exist anywhere on Wheezy?
- shoot, yep it does...
- Do this instead.....

What version of Debian is 6.3.5 using, is it still on Wheezy? I would like to add the non-free unrar.
