[App_rpt-users] Allstar on different distros

[Tony KT9AC]

Limey only runs on certain motherboards from what is available. Perhaps 
if it was opened up - some documentation on how to build it for example. 
I've considered it but can't grasp the cross-compiling methods yet.

For a low-power, fanless box I've gravitated toward the HP Thin clients, which really aren't that bad. 1.0Ghz AMD Geode, 512MB ram and an upgrade to a 44-pin 8GB Compact Flash. I have a need to build and remotely deploy three of these and would like a common install to manage. I do the standard noatime and tmpfs changes to keep the flash quiet and happy.

I can install Debian 7.1 in about 20 minutes and it absolutely flies. Asterisk 1.8 and the current ACID SVN all compile under Debian but I can't get it to work with the URI interface. Dmesg and lspci show the URI but Allstar using the "radio tune" shows the card as "-1". I have a whole weekend in this latest build attempt.

I realize that some builds were customized for a point in time, so that begs the question about modern day attempts (Debian 7.1 runs the 3.2.0-4-686-pae kernel). Thanks Kirk for your script, but I found out late last night it doesn't use the same hardware that I do.
