Howdy,
On the low end, I would say a Banana Pi R1 router is comparable. I
have one and it has problems, but is usable. I have only used it on
slow networks(like 4 mbps down and 1 up. Cnewer chipsets with eight
64 bit cpus should be able to keep up with much faster traffic at low
power.

Howdy,
I think this was a smart move. When I saw the original announcement
for the 6801, I thought it was a bad idea. That kind of CPU with the
support chips it needs is not cost effective. I hope they switch to a
64 bit arm design.
Good day,
Ralph

Howdy,
That was interesting about pxeboot and video cards. I don't think I
ever tried a pxeboot install to a machine without video.
I don't know if your real goal is to do the pxeboot install or to
have DOS running. If it is to have DOS running, may I suggest a
different route. I have setup

Howdy,
Technically, that is true. But, only after repeatedly trying to
contact the company to remind them of their obligation to publish source
code and getting no action. I am not aware of any case where a lawsuit
was the first step and doubt it has ever happened. They often get that

Howdy,
I hope it is not improper, but I would like to broaden this request a
bit. I would like to run OpenWRT on the Soekris 4521. I am looking
for the same kind of information as Philip seeks about the 5501. The
4521 has lots more ram than the WRT%$G, so it seems like it should be
possible.
Howdy,
If you are careful to not do more than one write to each sector per
day, you should make it. An MLC cell should take 1 writes. 20
years is 7305 days, so there is no room for 2 writes per day.
If you write to a normal filesystem, the directory sectors are not
going to survive. Even

This is why MLC is so widespread. There is a big difference in cost to
manufacture. The actual cost is 2 to 4 times more for SLC.

Howdy,
I installed it to a CF card. I got it almost running on a Soekris
4521. It ran, but crashed because the 4521 does not have enough memory.
I currently run pfSense from a CF card on a non-Soekris box with 124 meg
of ram. It is a geode design that take 4 meg for video ram, even though

teach with and that is where I thought the 4521 would work well.

Howdy,
I have a 802.11a card I want to put into my Soekris 4521. It came out
of a Proxim access point. My problem is that I don't know what kind of
cable I need. The Proxim had two antennae and each had a cable that
plugged into the cardbus nic. The cables are way to short to reach to

Howdy,
I am presently trying to build an image for a Soekris 4521 and this
seems like an interesting approach you have here. I have the VirtualBox
VM Manager in use and KVM installed on a test machine, but not tested
yet. Has anyone used a similar approach with either of these
hypervisors? If
Howdy,
It looks like the answer is replacing it with another card. This card
uses the Via VT6421A chip for IDE and Sata support. The CF card is just
like parallel IDE. I just see complaints about how this chip is not
well supported in Linux. I found an old reference to a patch file, but
follo
Howdy,
I did not see the FXO hardware at astlinux.org. What kind of card are
you looking at for 80 euros? That would not be a Digium brand card. I
find a brand named OpenVOX for about that, but I don't know anyone who
uses them and can tell me if they work OK.
Good day,

Howdy,
I have a couple of Soekris 4521 boards and a case for one of them from
Soekris. I want to make one into a wireless access point and I can't
tell what I need to buy for a cable.
I am not committed to any wireless card yet. I think I found a card
that should work pretty well. It is a "S
