I 
tried doing the same on one of the thin clients. A friend gave it to me as she 
was no longer using it for MagicJack.  It had the fast processor, 512MB 
flash drive and 512MB RAM. has no trouble installing LL but would not boot. Did 
not really expect it to. I gave the computer to some one else to use with a 
Magic Jack after reinstalling WinXPe (Windows XP embedded). Don't have time to 
really mess with it.

  you

  Limey only supports VERY specific motherboards. The "via" version 
  is ONLY
for a couple of VIA motherboards.

  it has nothing do with the URI at all.

Besides, DONT USE 
  ONBOARD AUDIO. Its quality is NOT ACCEPTIBLE.

  Finally got Limey on the machine..

  (Did it with ubuntu live cd , took sometime to figure out where the damn 
  drive was hidden but I got it..)

  Limey wont boot properly, it stop at :

  isapnp:No plug & Play device found

  So from what I understand, since it wont see a URI connected to the 
  machine, it wont continu booting.

  I dont want to use a URI i want to use the onboard audio and the onboard 
  serial port for ptt/cor.. too bad, will have to find something else..

  Unless someone ahve a solution ;-))))

  that would be a very nice xmass present ;-))

  I 
  built a ribbon cable with two 44 pin connectors on it for just that 
  task.  That way I can use my Mac. On CentOS I'm not sure where your 
  removable media will be... maybe in /dev/disk/something?

    ok ,

    I have some problem here..

    Since my t5630 flash drive have a connector that is exactly like the 
    connector that usely is on the end of a ide 44 pin cable I cant connect it 
    to my usb adaptor and dd the limey image to the flash drive.

    so I have to do it from the machine itself.

    so to do so I downloaded ubuntu live cd to boot from a dvd reader and I 
    have limey tar file on a usb stick.

    I try to find where the hell in monted the damn ide flash disk and just 
    cant.. I do have an Icone on the desktop but its a symlink and cant find 
    where its pointing..

    So I am right now downloading the centos 5.5 live dvd, hoping it will 
    be more clear where the damn thing is..

    I tried ide0 no go, ide1 not better..

    Anyone can help??

    And By the way

    Have a merry Xmass to everyone on the 
    list

    The probably easiest way to get an answer to your question is 
    to determine
it emperically.  Download the following 
    image:

http://stats.allstarlink.org/limeylinux/downloads/cfimg-i586-via-1.1.5.tar.gz

and 
    IMAGE copy it (after un-tarring) to the flash drive (using dd or 
    equivalent).

If it boots, and "talks" to the ethernet, etc, then it 
    works.
Otherwise, it doesnt.

    I Have a few T5630 thin 
    client that was donated to me (spec: 1ghz CPU , 1 gig of ram, 1 Gig flash 
    drive)

    they have a VIA chipset that 
    have Video , network, and audio device

    I am wondering if I could 
    use that thin client with Limey to do a Allstar node AND an echolink 
    node..

    I would connect that to port 
    3 of my rc210 controler that I have for my 2 M and 70 cm 
    repeater’s.

    If possible, how to i build 
    the thing??

    I know a few thing about 
    Linux but I am no way a guru.. I do prefer a windows machine, but I know 
    that Linux in more stable..

    So is it possible or am I 
    dreaming?

    forgot to tell you that 
    there is a serial and printerl port to the machine

    you can see the spec 
    there:
