I have still our old linux box as router between eth and tr.
I know it is pure luck to get TR card up and running. It depends on your motherboard, tr adapter and kernel. Same card can function properly on different motherboard with same kernel.
Automatic configuration of TR cards is maybe impossible. Chance of getting your entire box halted because of TR card is quite propable.
After adding TR card to my linux box I was not able to restart network at all. It will always hang when starting it again. If i want to restart network i need to reboot box.
I think Astaro's development people won't add tr support because of these problems. TR drivers are very buggy at best [:(]
Of course it would be nice to have support.
