Phil, I recognized the name, but hadn't seen you post in a while. The info on the voip-info.org wiki is getting to be old. Much of it is still valid for now, but when 0.5.0 is released (which should be in the next week or so--barring any emergency issues, right Kris?), it would be helpful to check over at http://www.astlinux.org. In particular, read the sections on runnix and unionfs. I don't know if we're releasing 0.5 only as a runnix image or if we'll continue to offer the traditional images as people learn how runnix works. I've been creating some documentation that describes a few new features which may make your life easier. We could use a volunteer to help create some additional documentation on that web page. It's a drupal install so it's pretty easy to use. > I pulled down version 0.4.8, put it on a CF card and it booted up OK, <snip>removed Vista problems</snip> > By the way, I tried to use my flash stick in windows (vista) again > after it had been formatted by genkd, and found that I couldn’t > format it properly any more.

Definitely try a new one. If you can, I would honestly wait for 0.5 to be released. The isdn code is completely updated. Asterisk is at the latest version. There are numerous security fixes and other updates that will likely result in a huge changelog.
