Lonnie Thanks for your answer.
Well, I totally agree, I would like to use it without any special treatment. I did exactly as you said. I installed a fresh 1.0.img.gz on a CF card and started my alix box with it. After installation, I only entered a new user/password in manager.conf and went to the site http://pbx:8088/static/config/index.html. This is where I experienced these problems. First, the one stating "Updating the configuration", then after "chmod" one step further. Maybe it is an alix problem? Maybe I should try the virtualbox version and see if it happens there, too... Can it be installation specific? I chose only one partition (the default) in the installation menu. Btw. the "chmod" problem is also described in the internet. That's why I tried that.
