Re: [Astlinux-users] Astlinux Hangs on "Starting new kernel"

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi Josh,

The next AstLinux release has a change that fixes some boot issues with HP thin clients, basically support ACPI in our runnix boot loader kernel.  You can give it a try by using: http://build.astlinux.org/

Click on the Cache tab, (same default password as for the images), Select Asterisk 1.8 or 11, check or uncheck "SMP Kernel:" as you want... leave the rest alone as they are not built at this time.

Then click on the "geni586" directory (assuming VGA console) and a .img.gz is available for you to download.

BTW -> If any of the above is not clear, tell me what you want and I'll create the download link for you.

To install the image to the internal 2 GB of the Wyse R90L, follow these steps: (I'm assuming the internal 2 GB is standard flash storage)

Copy Install Image to Internal Drive
http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:copy-image-usb-runnix

If you still have problems, take a photo of the console to show some context and email that off list to me.

This stick works on another machine so I don't believe it's a problem with the stick or the image.  Nevertheless, I tried re-downloading and re-imaging as well as using a different USB stick and I am able to reproduce the issue.  How can I resolve this issue?
