Ok having just received my nice shiny new iLive... I may have to eat my
words, but only slightly.  The Mixrack DOES run eCOS, however the control
surface runs Linux apparently as I just watched the bootup process and is
apparently running Linux kernel 2.6.13

So I am eating my words slightly.  The audio processing mixrack however is
still running eCOS as far as I know;)
