[App_rpt-users] Debian Wheezy and RPi update

[Roger Jordan]

Hi Doug,

 

I guess I did not choose my words carefully,

 

I am finding out that I have a little bit to learn as I just picked up (at
the Trenton Computer Show) a Raspberry Pi.  I was talking about the Binary
files they flash to an SD and then boot.  Can Asterisk and APP-APT be
compiled then installed with the existing system?  I guess If I had been
paying attention I would already have this info! ;-)  Sorry!

 

Nice to hear from you tho! Hope you are well!

Roger,

 Everyone has the capability to compile! 

I think you are talking about the PC Debian compile? I believe the ISO would
exceed DVD size. I guess you could really trim it down but setting up a
system for someone else to use is not a trivial task. 

If anyone really wants to run on Debian I have some notes on setting it up
from scratch but you still need to have a more than basic understanding of
Linux and Debian in particular. You would learn a lot doing this though.
Patience and persistence are required! For those who want to try it here is
the quick list:

1. Have a PC and drive you can dedicate
2. Download the Debian net installation CD (you can do this in windows)
3. Boot on the CD and install Debian (if gets the rest of the stuff via the
Internet)
4. Bring up Debian and configure the system for your tastes - DHCP/static,
ssh port, etc.
5. Download the kernel header files and other dependencies needed for
compiling
6. Get DAHDI complete source and compile and install
7. Get asterisk/allstar source and compile and install
8. Copy over or create and configure the /etc/asterisk configuration files

Note that in steps 6 and 7 you will without doubt get errors due to the lack
of required dependencies or files in the wrong place. You need to correct
the problem and start the compile over. 99.99% of errors you will get are
correctable with patience.

I would be glad to answer any questions anyone might have along the way.
