Hi,
I think it's nice to be able to see the HDD temperature in the web portal and started digging around. I found out that you already have the functionallity but it doesn't seem to be used anywhere (navigate to http://b3.local/admin/stat/info to get the JSON data). Hence I decided to hack it in myself.
I've attached the patch incase anyone else is interested in seeing it as well. Just make sure you have hddtemp installed (apt-get install hddtemp).
Transfer the patch to your bubba and ssh in. Then do:
su (use password 'excito') apt-get install hddtemp apt-get install patch cd /usr/share/web-admin/ wget download.excito.net/software/gui_hdd.patch patch --verbose -p0 < /path/to/gui_hdd.patch
[Edit: It didn't work well to screen copy/paste the patch for some reason (spaces vs tabs etc.), so we uploaded the patch file to a server for direct download.]
The result:
