Hi Dan, The proper method to revert to runnix-0.3 from runnix-0.4 after you upgraded was to simply use the System tab ->
RUNNIX Bootloader Upgrade: [ Revert to Previous ] - Runnix - _x_ Confirm If you did the above at the same time you reverted from AstLinux 1.0.1 to AstLinux 0.7.10 in the System tab all would have been good. In your case, when you reverted to AstLinux 0.7.10 and were able to boot via "xrunnix" you could have also used the same System tab method to make it stick. Tom's suggestion should only be used as a last resort, ie, when AstLinux can't be booted because of a RUNNIX / AstLinux mismatch. Back to your original issue... It seems to me your hardware is being recognized properly by AstLinux 1.0.1, since you booted and SSH and HTTPS worked. Feel free to privately email your logs to me, that would help. Is is possible you upgraded to a different version of Asterisk than you had previously?
