Subject: [Astlinux-users] Asterisk not called by root user

At http://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=17727#p17727 I have posted
an /etc/init.d/asterisk script to run Asterisk as non-root (and change
ownership to a few files as required) without having to modify other
settings. That script should be modified before transplanting it to
Astlinux, as there are several differences between the two platforms:

- OpenWRT doesn't have Zapata drivers.
- Moving astdb to a RAM partition may not be so important on Astlinux, but
wear and tear on OpenWRT is deadly because the flash memory is soldered to
the mainboard...
- The calls to "deromize" are an OpenWRT-only thing
- Some paths might be different
