John, Thanks for helping us understand how you use it and what's important to you. The ISO stuff is Darrick's domain, so I'll let him tackle that. I just banged out some directions on burning images and uploading build results to a running system. As for the move to 1.8: yeah, I think everyo

And that's simpler? Ok, if you say so. :-) It wouldn't work for me because my build host is on a remote network, and the only way it can install images back to my local network is via SSH... it doesn't have a publicly visible web server. Indeed, I'm not even sure I've ever bothered to ins

For the page: http://doc.astlinux.org/devdoc:documentation in the section "Creating an Image", this is fairly simple. If someone can cut, massage, and paste this into the Wiki, that would be great. = = = Use "dmesg" to figure out the size of the CF when you insert it into your build system

Mark, First, assuming you're not working with 'trunk', do the following: mkdir scripts wget -P scripts -O shipit.sh 'http://astlinux.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/astlinux/trunk/scripts/shipit.sh?revision=4337' chmod a+x scripts/shipit.sh and then if you need to use a particular port to ssh into

Or, for us mortals... :-) In your build system, after a successful build for the 0.7 branch, you will see two files: astlinux-0.7-4300.tar.gz astlinux-0.7-4300.tar.gz.sha1 The "4300" corresponds to the current SVN rev, your number will vary. Create your own private HTTP repository for your cus

I support a fair number with the geni-586 flavor on HP thin clients. Some are using or have upped to 0.7.2, and no one really has a desire to use Asterisk 1.6 for our application as a gateway to the Collectors network. Some are using Cisco 3810's via SIP, a few with single port T1, to mate with

Before we move the discussion to -devel to bang out the details, why don't we get a sense of what the users want in bold strokes? For instance, how many people are running 1.4? How many run 1.6? And of those running 1.4, how many were waiting for 1.8 so they could skip 1.6 as an interim rele

Philip, The point of a numbered branch is stability. That's why a majority of the changes that have happened in trunk will never make it into 0.7. It doesn't make sense to do so. Branching makes more sense when things have been tested a bit more thoroughly. I'd have little objection to bra
