So I've been thinking hosting one.

I'm getting a 100/100mbit connection soon, and I thought about building this server.

First of all: What's the stuff needed for running *booru? Mysql? or any other stuff? I'd appreciate some info here.

Second: Is 100mbit enough or should I scrap the idea?
(If so then please admin2 feel free to delete this thread/topic)

I mainly thought about HQ stuff but pointed to a more different way than moe. Perhaps like ero was?
Let me reply to most of those questions.

1st) 100mbit is more than enough for konachan.com right now, moe.imouto currently uses 2 servers of 100mbit but 100mbit should be more than enough for a start.

2nd) Requirements: Unix box and some knowledge, at least 1GB of RAM if you want to upload HQ stuff and want to be resized properly, Ruby on Rails, A bunch of gems and dependencies, postgresql and patience
There's a guide of how to install it here based on the guide admin2 wrote on uruchai for FreeBSD
http://trac.donmai.us/browser/danbooru/trunk/INSTALL.freebsd

And on a side note, ero is now merged with moe, so you can upload hq quality ero scans here.
