Warning
the latest kernel (and possibly others) can't mount the root fs, i don't know why. using the oldest kernel works, but is less than ideal. next time it's rebooted please check if any of the newer kernels work.
Purpose
Babbage is a general usage server that lives in the space.
Access
Hackspace members do not automatically receive a Babbage account. To access Babbage, ask for an account on the IRC, and then connect via SSH.
Security
Since many hackspace members have root access, and since very little effort (ok, no effort whatsoever) is put into securing Babbage you should assume that the likelyhood of someone breaking into it is quite high. Don't leave any files on there that you don't have a backup of, and don't assume any data on Babbage will remain confidential. Be careful about ssh forwarding and beware of thing like github passwords or passwords to other machines in the hackspace.
