Chris, There's nothing in the wiki to terribly detailed. It's just http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/GettingStarted and http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/SmokeTools. GettingStarted is the page which suggests the CPANPLUS route for automated testing without explaining further.
Regardless, you hit the nail on the head. I recently ran out of disk on the smoker and cleaned the build directories. It appears just adding the --indices switch to minismokebox should fix the problem. Is there a way to suppress NA and UNKNOWN reports?
