I am successfully using HP T5700/T5710 thinclient units with only 256MB mb of Flash/256 MB RAM with Astlinux 1.01...
To bootstrap the whole thing, you need to start from scratch -- i.e. with a zero'd out flash card. I had some issues getting going with a non-zero'd card that were cured with a "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda" Write the image to said zero'd card 256MB card and boot. It worked for me.... Not much space left when all said and done, but usable. I'd imagine if you started from an existing install of 0.7.x you may not have enough room get the whole thing going with an upgrade install. -BB > > Message: 1 > Date: Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:06:21 +0100 (CET) > From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Subject: [Astlinux-users] Installation on small compact flash > To: [email protected] > > Message-ID: <13340626.24975291328828781910.JavaMail.root@wmail65> > Content-Type: text/plain;charset="UTF-8" > > > Hi! > I'm trying to install astlinux on a small CF (256MB); i would like to use it > also for Persistent Storage. > I can't create Persistent Storage partition with latest version because after > writing the image there is no space left. > The web interface report the boot partition (that in read-only mode) used at > 19% (with 155.2M available); so why it was so big in the image? > (During the lastest version of astlinux the zip package remain of the same > size, but the image to write is getting bigger each time; > so i think the image it's getting bigger but the difference contain no data > at all.) > > On the same subject, how could move asterisk sound into the read only > partition to free space in the Persistent Storage? > > Thanks for your help. > > Antonio ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ Astlinux-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to [email protected].
