Start with a Raspberry Pi with the latest Raspbian image (see http://raspberrypi.org) or a BeagleBone Black with the latest Debian image (see http://www.armhf.com). Scott's software will EASILY fit on the on-board memory of the BBB, but you will still need a uSD card to install the armhf.com Debian image to the on-board memory. If you are using Raspbian on a RasPi, be sure to configure Raspbian with the "sudo raspi-config" command. If you are using Debian on a BBB, be sure to look over the notes on expanding the uSD memory on the www.armhf.com website.

You can also use the new Debian images on BeagleBone.org. New BBBs (with the 4gb on-board memory) are now shipping with Debian instead of Angstrom and g2_ircddb will compile and install just fine on this Debian image. However, right now (late June 2014) there are still some minor bugs in this package, e.g., "halt" in a ssh shell will hang the shell. Hopefully, "sudo apt-get upgrade" will eventually fix this.
You will need several packages to build Scott's gateway. The RasPi will probably have all or most of these but it still doesn't hurt to be sure:
