[nos-bbs] JNOS beginner, looking for direction

[bill K7WXW]

GM - While I am a fairly adept windows/mac/linux user, know a little 
about networking, and generally comfortable with breaking things, I am 
stuck in trying to get started on JNOS.  What I'd like to do is learn 
how to put up a packet node using JNOS that is connected, on the 
internet side, through AMPRnet, to other systems.  I want to set up a 
radio accessible BBS, pick up and deliver email, and learn what else is 
possible with RF packet.  If I am on the wrong track and should choose 
something other than JNOS to do this, it would be good to know that, too.

In an ideal world, my system would be running on a Raspberry Pi with a 
couple of TNCs stacked on it...

Most of the documentation for installing JNOS I have found on the web is 
a decade or more old and I can't really figure out if it is still 
usable.  There's some stuff like the Michigan ARES website, but that 
seems pretty specific to their needs. Unfortunately, I haven't been able 
to find anyone locally that is actively doing packet radio, so I don't 
have anyone nearby to bug with my questions.

If anyone here can point me to good resources that I am managing to miss 
in my own search, I'd be most appreciative.

thx es 73 Bill K7WXW
