I have heard those things. I have a crash I can reproduce on a VIA Esther, and it happens even when I boot linux with "ide=nodma" and when I completely disable DMA in the BIOS.
The crash is very predictable: Run asterisk, and put 100 call files one each 0.5 seconds. Make them call another machine (I use SIPp). System dies between 20 seconds. >>I'm now using Micro-ATX systems with Dual Core Athlons (the EE versions) >>- it ends up the same price to build as the Mini-ITX systems but has >>more horsepower and is better supported in Linux. Dernot, can you provide links please? _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
