Ubuntu 14.10

So here so far is my command line step by step on this machine roughly

First step was to change Linux Headers to generic headers

1. apt-get update
   

2. apt-get upgrade --show-upgraded

3. apt-get install linux-image-amd64

4. mkdir /boot/grub

5. apt-get install grub-legacy

6. grub-set-default 1    (Generates /boot/grub/menu.lst )

7. update-grub

8. nano /boot/grub/menu.lst   Edited some timer to 10 and updated kopt=   
   

    kopt=root=/dev/xvda console=hvc0 ro quiet   Double check groot=(hd0)

9. update-grub

10. In the Linode Manager, edit your Linode’s configuration profile to use either pv-grub-x86_32 or pv-grub-x86_64 as the kernel, depending on the version of Debian you have deployed (32-bit or 64-bit).   (My host only offers x86_64
11. reboot from dashboard after adjusting some minor settings in the profile.
12. In Console     uname -a
13. Response from     uname -a  Linux (none) 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.65-1+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    
    

Ok now we first installed asterisk just regular using
apt-get install asterisk-dahdi

Not exactly sure what it did things at this point have now become sketchy because i am unsure where the config files for allstar should be also i am use to the centos based acid and so I think i am getting confused some where in the installation but here is my history so far on this machine..
1  apt-get update
    2  apt-cache search dahdi
    3  apt-get install asterisk-dahdi
    4  cd /tmp
    5  wget http://dl.allstarlink.org/installcd/zsync-0.6.1.tar.bz2
    6  tar -jxvf zsync-0.6.1.tar.bz2
    7  cd zsync-0.6.1
    8  ./configure
    9  make
   10  make install
   11  cd /etc/init.d
   12  wget http://dl.allstarlink.org/installcd/rc.updatenodelist
   13  mv rc.updatenodelist updatenodelist
   14  chmod 755 updatenodelist
   15  ./updatenodelist &
   16  nano /etc/init.d/asterisk
   17  ./updatenodelist &
   18  ./asterisk start
   19  nano /etc/init.d/asterisk
   20  ./asterisk start
   21  ./asterisk restart
   22  ./updatenodelist &
   23  ./asterisk restart
   24  ./updatenodelist &
   25  ls
   26  cd /etc/asterisk
   27  nano rpt.conf
   28  nodesetup.sh
   29  ls
   30  nano /var/lib/asterisk/keys/allstar.pub
   31  clear
   32  apt-get install
   33  apt-get install curl
   34  cd /usr/src
   35  wget http://x.allstarlink.org/svn-trunk.tar.gz -O- | tar xzv
   36  mv trunk astsrc
   37  cd astsrc
   38  make upgrade-acid
   39  menuselect.makeopts
   40  service asterisk restart
   41  cd ..
   42  apt-get install git-core
   43  git clone https://github.com/KD8EYF/squeezeterisk.git
   44  ./squeezeterisk/scripts/allstar-install.sh
   45  apt-get update
   46  apt-get upgrade --show-upgraded
   47  apt-get install linux-image-amd64
   48  mkdir /boot/grub
   49  apt-get install grub-legacy
   50  grub-set-default 1
   51  update-grub
   52  nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
   53  nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
   54  update-grub
   55  history

Another thought on installation was to take the current Acid Distro and install it on linode.. So here is my steps so far to this one however I will tell you that for some reason we are stuck on a grub boot loader and not getting anywhere at the moment with the installation of acid.

Ok I followed the directions and wound up with the below attached below the line the kernal in my Virtualized vm shows this..

The attachment is a screen shot of the vm information what is the thoughts of being able to make this work really would like this one to be successful if possible..

Hello,

It looks like your Linode is loading GRUB, the bootloader, but doesn't know about any distributions it can boot. Could you provide the contents of the following file in the image you uploaded to your Linode?

/boot/grub/menu.lst

Thanks in advance!
