General Discussion / Re: ALIX/i386 support?
« on: April 10, 2017, 11:28:09 pm »
I'm in the same trouble and it seems obvious that our beloved Alix 2dxxx reached the end of the road because the bare minimum hardware requirements are - by far - more than the Alix 2dxxx can provide
This is the minimum hardware Opnsense require (from https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/hardware.html)
Processor : 500MHz single core cpu
RAM : 512 MB
Install method :Serial console or video (vga)
Install target :SD or CF card with a minimum of 4GB, use nano images for installation
I guess you are in the same dilemma I'm on ... install Opnsense even if you have a performance impact due to the reliability and low power comsumption of the Alix boards...
I tried the liveCD mode and it runs in my Alix 2d2 !!
Form my perspective the only chance left is to get a preloaded image for different CF card sizes as we had with PFsense. I'm googling for those images but with no luck.
Please feel free to share your tears with me, I'd been running my Alix for almost 6+ years with no trouble at all
