Hi Shamus, We need to understand what is going on in more detail. The RUNNIX changes from 0.7.7 to 0.7.8 is very minor and should not effect booting at all, and both are using the same version of syslinux to perform the initial boot. I don't think it is RUNNIX. Are you using a video or seria

Shamus, I tried the geni586-serial version on my net5501 and it worked fine (serial console). I don't have a video console to test the geni586 but suspect it is OK. I used a SanDisk Ultra II 2GB card. Could you have a much larger capacity CF card 8GB, 16GB, etc. ?, there could be an issue wi

SanDisk Ultra's are very good CF cards. What target board is your astlinux-0.7.10-asterisk-1.8.7.1.img.gz ? net5501, alix, etc. ? I can try the same to make sure it is not an image issue. Lonnie On Oct 29, 2011, at 12:55 PM, Shamus Rask wrote: > Michael, Lonnie: > > I tried both your sugges
