Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on a Beagleboard?
I was going to dismiss this, but it does offer an interesting possibility; Since it can boot Debian ARM from an SD card, you could have Asterisk-in-a-can where you would have the Debian build and Asterisk on the SD card and could hook up to a USB hub (for Ethernet connectivity) and process up to 14GB of call-data before having to offload to permanent/traditional media. If you really went nuts, you could possibly even power and use a DAHDI device off of some USB-powered peripheral. -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Lyle Giese Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2009 8:24 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on a Beagleboard?

Thank you. 128m of ram 256 m flash for the 'hard drive' is not much in either catagory. And ethernet is a USB addon, not on the board. It appears to support a SD/MMC card, meaning that it can support gigs of low power storage space. Or a USB HDD for higher power storage space. 128m of RAM isn't a lot, but some people are apparently running Asterisk on 32MB Linksys WRT54GS's (OpenWRT). If you were careful and cautious, it'd probably work. The Ethernet as an add-on kinda stinks and is probably the largest negative. ...

Probably worth discussing this over on the AstLinux list as they are all about embedded Asterisk running on machines like this.
