[asterisk-users] Mini-ITX board + FXO PCI card?

[Michelle Dupuis]

We use a lot of mini-itx pc's, including the pCI slot.  I don't think any of
the systems have shared an irq with the PCI slot....

OK, I'll make sure it has enough cache and I'll recompile the code myself. 
I'm thinking of getting an ML 8000

Those boards only come with one PCI slot. Do you mean it could share an IRQ
with some embedded component like the video card?

BTW, in this age of big USB drive, I don't really nee a DVD/CDRW combo. 
Does someone know if the Via motherboards (at least the ML series) supports
booting off a USB drive, so I can use this to start Linux and fetch install
files from an FTP server?

Thank you.
