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.

have the flash drive plugged into the IDE0 slot?

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.

Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Limey Linux on a HP T5630 Thin Client

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.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] Limey Linux on a HP T5630 Thin Client

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:
