Hi All,
I finally took the plunge and installed the net5501 img onto a 1 GB CF,
which runs on an Alix1c board I have experience the following.
When I try to run create UnionFS I with the following method.
pbx ~ # fdisk /dev/hda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1986.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
Command (m for help): n
Command action
e extended
p primary partition (1-4)
p
Partition number (1-4): 2
First cylinder (261-1986, default 261): 261
Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (261-1986, default 1986): +128M
Command (m for help): w
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table
*************************************************************************
I get the error below and the whole system hangs nothing happens even if I
leave it for an hour.
"fdisk: WARNING: rereading partition table failed, kernel still uses old
table: Device or resource busy"
****************************************************************************
*************
The only way to get back in i to repower the unit, but then I cannot log
into the unit, so I have to format the CF and start all over again.

Second attempt.
The only way for me to setup UnionFS is this way, I have to unmount the
oldroot/cdrom
pbx ~ # umount /oldroot/cdrom
pbx ~ # fdisk /dev/hda

This script will automatically create a read/write
filesystem to store your AstLinux configuration.
THIS SCRIPT WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING ON /dev/hda2
ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO CONTINUE?
Please type yes to continue
Are you sure? : yes
WARNING:
You already have a filesystem with the label ASTURW
This could confuse AstLinux when it boots.
I hope you know what you are doing...
Press enter to continue
Creating filesystem...
Filesystem Created.
On new systems you can optionally use unionfs instead of they key disk.
To create the appropriate file structure, type yes.
If you have an existing key disk and want to migrate your key disk
settings to this new unionfs partition, execute movekd /dev/hda2 after
this script exits.
To create a new key disk structure on your new unionfs partition,
type yes followed by the Enter key. Press any other key to exit.
If you are new to Astlinux, you will want to say yes.
Are you sure? : yes
Copying files to /dev/hda2
Please reboot now or run movekd to migrate an existing key disk to your
unionfs partition
pbx ~ # reboot

This method gets it all working ok but my TDM card with 2xFXO are not
detected, how do I get it working, as the asterisk gui does not show the
Analog card as well.
Appreciate your help
Cheers
Cleve Jansen
