i stumbled across an old clusterboard i bought for a defunct project, back when there was a promtion to get a SoPine bundled with it .
So now i have a single SOPINE board, psu, cluster board and two loose ceramic resistors in a box waiting to setup.The resistors stumped me at first, but found a description of their use (related to an ATX power supply)

Now i have kit, and i have questions.
Fitting into a box.
I Have a box that is not It is not an ATX formfactor.
- Is active cooling really needed? Can it run fanless? Is there an upper passive cooling limit? Does it need ventilation at all (sealed?)
- Does there need to be airflow/clearance underneath the board?
- Is there a battery backed up portablility hack?
I will post more when they come up.
