    Why!. I think it is a simple function in the BIOS. Is your BIOS genuine from Intel ...

Intel uses different wordings for the AC power failure recovery function. Intel uses "After power failure" with three options: Stay off, Last state, Power on. In the previous attempt, I have tried the third option "Power on" but it did not work at that time. Later on after playing around with other parameter values, such as "Wake on Lan from S5" and "Wake system from S5", the auto-on function works. After removing the last two parameters settings, the auto-on function still works. I am wondering what has happened and what has done besides the above-mentioned task.

Any way, it is confirmed that Intel D510MO board does have the auto-on function (or AC power failure recovery function). As the result, the Asterisk will resume after AC power failure recovery.

In fact, if you have paid more, you may get another mainboard which consumes less power at higher price from Intel ATOM-based mother boards. I believe that the price will be much higher than the one that I got, as a result, I did not choose that option. It requires a notebook RAM which causes you some money. If you want to have a more reliable system with less power consumption. You may choose that option.

The model of that board is INTEL D945GSEJT ATOM N270.

Good. You find the reason and trick.

    Yes, it was 2 from them. They do have good support.

How much that you paid for the mother board and the two FXO cards?

家裡原本已有一台機打算是給Asterisk用的...後來便沒用了...
最迎打算嘗試在VM中起Asterisk...(而且還希望將幾台機退役...因為太多機在運行了...)

不過首要問題是先搞定前面的ClearOS...

我们可能比较简单，用Hardware router，而不像坛主你那么专业，用Software router。

Does your ATOM-based system comes with CD-ROM drive? How did you install your Asterisk system? Did you use any USB-HDD or USB-ZIP flash drive?

My atom based system does not have a CD-ROM. I have USB-CDROM but my system is installed like this.

I have a working Centos server before. I just move the file system into the 2.5" harddisk and make some adjustment of the boot file. After some configurations, I then install asterisk. As like you, my first asterisk was installed in a DD-WRT router and then migrated to the present system. Moreover, I have now used YUM to install and upgrade the asterisk.

How did you make a ordinary USB flash to a USB-CDROM? As I know that in order to make a USB flash to a USB-CDROM flash, it requries a certain type of USB flash, right?

I think what ckleea said was an external USB-CDROM instead of turning a USB flash stick into an USB-CDROM.

In fact, if your USB flash stick is not too old, it can be recognized and bootable by the BIOS.  What you need to do is to turn the Asterisk software into an image file in .ISO format and copy it into the USB flash stick as it is.

    There are two ways to make and CD_ROM ISO to boot from a USB stick
1. to set up Grub and use iso image. The problem of this is that you can't have a too large image. Though it claims to work, my experience with large image is likely to fail
2. some linux versions allows you to convert ISO into a bootable USB stick but it is unlikely to have not possible for Asterisk Image.

My solution can be like this
install your favourable image to a hard disk
clone the partition to the drive you need by your favourable program e.g. ghost or I use Arconis True Image
the last step to use either a bootable CD or USB stick to make change to your grub bootloader in the harddisk partition

Or
you may move the 2.5" harddisk to a PC to install your favourable asterisk and then connect back to your ATOM PC.

Please note that linux is more friendly than MS Windows. Usually no need for driver installation. In your case, you use a Intel 945 chipset which is just plug and ply. Much better is that it usually won't leave much old drivers in the system

Hope this can help.

Thank Bubblestar C-Hing for providing the most useful link to me. I hope this would help me to fix the installation probelm that I have encountered.

May I ask for the photo capture of your mini Asterisk posted here so as to see how tiny your system (case) is.  Thanks!

I bought the Intel D510MO from this Taobao seller (shown below) at higher price of RMB 1175. If you use ordinary boards, you may get it at RMB998.
