Hello, I am using syslinux to boot a Soekris net4801 into LRP/Lince 1.2 linux. Net4801 has no video card - it has only a serial port. During bootstrap syslinux writes the text file syslinux.dpy to the serial port but it breaks the line every 15th character. I tried syslinux versions 1.66 and 2.11 with same results. In the Archives from June 3, 2002 , there is a message on this subject

Hi. I am trying to use EXTLINUX 3.08 to boot a Soekris net4801 from a CompaqFlash card. BIOS reports the CF card as the first master harddisk. During boot/load the loader hangs after this output: EXTLINUX 3.08 2005-05-19 PXELINUX and LILO works fine on the same setup It this a general problem with Soekris/net4801 and EXTLINUX?

Has anyone on the list used a Soekris engineering PC as a TDM - Ethernet bridge? For example something like a net4801 with a TE110p in it and then using TDMoE to get it into a bigger server where the call processing proper will occur. Anyone know if it might handle a quadspan card ok? (no transcoding, just pure PRI to TDMoE bridging). Craig

I try to use a linux on a soekris : http://www.soekris.com/net4801.htm . This is a tiny PC without screen nor keyboard. So i can use only a RS232 console. I can find some information on the use of lilo on this card with success (a modified debian). I have choose to use a mandrake then the mklivecd script to transforme it in .iso file (wich make it read only). I have create my own script to

Hi all, I have a Soekris net4801-50 board with OpenBSD 3.9 where I've configured a dhcp server and tested it with a regular PC connected directly via a crossover cable with success. The problem comes when I try to connect my IAXy device instead of the PC. I can see with 'tcpdump -nettti sis1' that the IAXy isn't sending any packets to the dhcp server. I thought my IAXy was bad

Hello, Recently I have discovered a problem with serial console output when net-booting a Soekris net5501 board via pxe. When using pxelinux.0 from syslinux 4.04 package I get only 15 characters from the output, then the carriage returns back to the same line over and over again, making it impossible to read the output. What is more the booting process (trying configuration files with

Just curious... Does anyone know if any companies using Asterisk on embedded hardware (out at the customer premisis), such as the Soekris Net4801, to provide VOIP service? Doug.

Hi, I'm running into an issue while using FreeBSD 5.4, NUT from ports (2.0.3), serial on /dev/cuaa1, Ellipse 1200 USBS. The ups.conf is : [ellipse] driver=mge-utalk port=/dev/cuaa1 desc="Telecom Closet Ellipse" When I go to start it I get : Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.3 Network UPS Tools - MGE UPS SYSTEMS/U-Talk driver 0.87 (2.0.3)

Hello everyone, Does anyone out there have actual experience with running * on a mini-itx board from VIA? They look good, but I have some reserves because of VIA's problems with PCI latency in recent years (audio dropouts, wierd things happening). I am looking at the EPIA CL-10000. For $270, I can get a CL-10000 (1ghz C3, dual ethernets, etc), 256mb RAM, and a nice small (12 x 2 x 11)

hi Peter, everyone, I recently installed extlinux on my CF drive. after a few botches, it works, with menu.c32 too. Heres a few notes/observations: - menuing seems pretty sensitive to presence of tabs in extlinux.conf, unlike with pxelinux.cfg/default, Is this an oversight, or something Im misremembering ? - extlinux doesnt have the timeout after menu-choice. if I dont choose, it times out and

Hello everyone, Even though a lot of it was a bit last minute, several of us from the commnunity made it to Baltimore to help Digium with their booth at ISPCon. It was a great time. Gregory Boehnlein, Brian Capouch, Christian Savinovich, Kristian Kielhofner (me), and John Todd (not pictured) were there (as well as others), and some pictures were taken (the up close ones of me were very

I'm trying to do a very minimal install onto a Soekris net4801. There seems to be a missing dependency in some package causing the install to fail with: +-------------+ Exception Occurred +--------------+ | | | An unhandled exception has occurred. This # | | is most likely a bug. Please copy the

Hello Everyone, I have released AstLinux 0.2.2. There are way too many improvements to list here, but here is a short summary: Linux 2.4.27, iptables, mini_httpd (with PHP & SSL), phpconfig, AstShape traffic shaping, tftp server, OpenSSH, proftpd, Soekris Net4801 and Pentium-MMX and higher x86 support. There is actually WAY more software, but I couldn't possibly list it all. It

Is anyone using a net4801 and an analog only setup? I am looking for a modem that is PCI 3.3V, apparently the X100P is 5.0V PCI only so it won't work with the net4801.

Hi, FINALLY got my UPS working, YEA!!!! But now it brings up even more issues.. (BOOO!!) 1) I'm thinking this is a UPS issue, but when I pull the plug on my UPS, it goes from 100 to 30 in just a short amount of time (Minutes). This causes the machine to shut down. But once it gets to 0, its beeped its little heart out for a few more HOURS providing power to the non-system items perfectly.

I'm considering that board as a mail and voip gateway for home use. In view of all those statements about how little resources asterisk needs, did anybody already try running asterisk on it? Thanks, Bruno.

I recently installed the April 21st snapshot on my Soekris net4801 (dmesg here[1]) that has a vpn1411 crypto-accelerator in it. For the first time, I'm getting a tremendous amount of "Corrupted MAC on input" errors while sshing into this machine. While there has been discussion -- going all the way back to 3.5 -- that it's a hardware problem with the net4801 and the

Hello, I'm trying to put together a low cost - low powers PBX appliance for several customers. I have purchased a couple of the soekris net4801 boards and have asterisk up and running on them fine but they just don't quite cut it in the processing power department. I've been able to get about 10 simultaneous SIP calls with simple ulaw (no encoding decoding). While this might be OK for

Hi, I want to build a PBX base on Asterisk using an embedded device. Can anyone please recommend an embedded device I can use for doing so? I will install linux or freebsd in the device. Thanks A
