Well, Thanks for all the replies, but to be honest reading all the replies I can conclude that I am on a dead end? I just upgraded from astboxlinux (astrerisk 1.2) because I really liked the Astlinux interface and everything around it.
Any other suggestions for a out of the box distro that has a nice interface where also the config files are directly accessable for editing? I am running it on a normal x86 (AMD Geode @ 500MHz).
