Josh, I assume you are not seeing "error mounting astlinux-1.1.6.run rootfs" anymore ?
I'm wondering if your internal 1GB flash module has a few bad cells, and the exercising with /dev/zero and installing AstLinux is getting those cells flagged to be ignored. (only a guess) Configuring AstLinux with "separate" partitions is the way I configure all my systems, the only disadvantage for your case is your somewhat small 1 GB flash storage and "combined" shares the space a little better, but if your current "separate" partition setup is working and not showing disk errors, all is well. Even with only 500 MB of flash storage for the /mnt/kd partition, you can do a lot. If you already have some Asterisk experience you are off to the races, if not, take your time learning.
