If you have no editor, try

echo text > path/filename

Darrick,

Thank you for the reply and suggestions. Sorry for the delay in response; yard work and March Madness distracted me from my AstLinux hobby.

Sadly, when this error occurs, although I'm left with a command prompt, I have no nano, vi, or other equally capable tool to edit astlinux-0.7.1.run.conf. Since I have no other SATA hardware here at home (my machines are mostly misfit toys), I can't try another machine today. Perhaps I'll have to bring the SATA drive to work and try editing it there.

Here's another part of the symptom that seems strange: This machine also has a SATA CD ROM. I can successfully boot the astlinux.iso CD from the SATA CD ROM if the SATA solid-state drive is either disconnected or has had its partitions removed. However, once the AstLinux image is DD'd onto the solid-state drive, attempts to boot from either the CD or the SATA drive result in the error described below. I've also tried to boot the machine with just the SATA drive connected (and the CD ROM disconnected) with the same results.

Dan,

Can you edit the astlinux-0.7.1.run.conf file and add noram to the end
of the KCMD line?

Not sure if that will work, but we may get closer to finding a resolution.
