Beyond what others have mentioned like the TNC-Pi (nice kit), using a $7 USB
soundcard and Direwolf will provide superior decodes. As for OS images to
run, that are packet centric, there are several available:
- Bernard's new Jessie based image for TNC-Pi -
http://f6bvp.org/AX25_BBS_Node_RaspBerry_Pi_install.html
- Mitch's Wheezy based image with setup GUI which supports TNC-X and
Direwolf - https://sourceforge.net/projects/haldigital/
- I've been working on my own documentation for such a thing (v2 on Jessie
is close but incomplete, v1 for Wheezy is done) for Direwolf and TNC-Pi -

- Brett's TNC-Pi centric image -

I'm sure there are others out there as well but these are the ones I'm aware
of at the moment.

There is also a Pidora/JNOS package that we use here in Michigan where
JNOS is pre-installed on the flash image. The configuration manager is
imbedded into the Pidora image as well, which steps the user through a
series of configuration screens. Though it is very much Michigan centric,
it would be easy to re-edit the autoexec.nos for your own particular
settings. Nicest thing is the easy Ctl-Alt-F1 Ctl-Alt-F6 switching
between the Pidora desktop and the JNOS terminal. But most users just
'telnet' to the JNOS application and leave an xterm window open.
