Is there a dedicated Pi mailing list where I should ask this question or will this be ok here?
In view of my failing to set up my printer as a device off my router, I'm now thinking that I can use the same USB socket on the router to power a Pi which can then act as a print server for my printer.
If I were to use a pre-configured distro like Raspbian, it would have all the desktop stuff installed and I don't want that. So is there an easy way to do a minimal install on a Pi?
I would experiment on my own Pi but I've lent it to somebody to use in their own OS experiments so apologies for having to ask this question.
