Hi All, 

Thanks for all of the help I've been given in the past and info I've picked up 
from this list over the years. 

I have an "official" Asterisk appliance (the AA50) running my PBX at home (we 
previously also had an AA50 in a satellite office-that one was recently retired 
and replaced with Asterisk running on commodity server hardware). 

Anyway - the AA50 software/Asterisk version is beyond outdated at this point, 
and the GUI has done nothing but infuriate me. Has anyone - or does anyone know 
if it's possible to - replace the "commercial" Linux/Asterisk running on the 
AA50 with another Linux flavor (say Ubuntu) and current open source Asterisk 
(ideally 11.something with Gareth's Cisco patch).

I don't need - or want - a pretty GUI... just something I can SSH into and 
perhaps manhandle config files with Nano or something similar - worst case, 
something I can FTP/TFTP configuration files to. 

If that isn't feasible, anything low power/low profile/low cost that's 
particularly popular these days [bonus points if it's wall mountable/about the 
same size as the AA50]? My demands really aren't that severe -- one FXO, two 
FXS, a SIP "trunk" to the office (via hardware VPN), and maybe a half dozen 
Cisco 79xx phones. 

If it's not already apparent, I'm a relative Linux newb, but I'm farly well 
versed in patching and building Asterisk from source and generally getting 
things done once I have the pointers.

Thanks in advance -- and happy new year!
