[App_rpt] ACID update procedure to install latest version of Asterisk
A later version of asterisk is available for ACID installs. These upgrade instructions must be followed to the letter. 1. Change directories to /root 2. If you don't have an astupd.sh file STOP. Your ACID install is too old and you will need to do a fresh install which will install the latest version automatically. If you have to re-install, make a backup of your config files in /etc/asterisk so that you can restore them to the new install. 3. If you have an astupd.sh file, you will need to update it by downloading a new version. Use the following wget command from the /root directory to do this: wget http://dl.allstarlink.org/installcd/astupd.sh 4. Once the new script is downloaded, type: ./astupd.sh 5. Your system will now be updated. Wait for the download and compile to complete. 6. Reboot your system and check to see that your node is functioning properly. Steve WA6ZFT
with the instructions given wget does not overwrite astupd.sh directly. The old file remains. and the new file is saved as astupd.sh.1. It also needs to be made executable with chmod 770 before you can run it. Eric On Sat, Oct 11, 2008 at 8:56 PM, Stephen Rodgers < hwstar@rodgers.sdcoxmail.com> wrote:

Eric, Thanks for catching this! I forgot about how cautious wget can be. My two versions are identical and iI didn't key off of the date. Steve WA6ZFT Eric Fort wrote:

As Eric Fort as pointed out (thanks Eric!), these was a problem in the previous instructions. Here are the revised update instructions: 1. Change directories to /root 2. Do an ls to list the files. If you don't have an astupd.sh file STOP. Your ACID install is too old and you will need to do a fresh install which will install the latest version automatically. If you have to re-install, make a backup of your config files in /etc/asterisk so that you can restore them to the new install. 3. If you have an astupd.sh file delete it by typing: rm astupd.sh 4. You will need to update it by downloading a new version. Use the following wget command from the /root directory to do this: wget http://dl.allstarlink.org/installcd/astupd.sh 5. Make it executable by typing: chmod 755 astupd.sh 6. To update Asterisk, type: ./astupd.sh 7. Your system will now be updated if it is not running the latest Asterisk version. Wait for the download and compile to complete. 8. Reboot your system and check to see that your node is functioning properly. Steve WA6ZFT Stephen Rodgers wrote:

Times they are a changing. Got a box lying around needing something to do. Thought I'd start another Limey Linux install for it. Wouldn't you know, the smallest CF card at Fry's was 4GB. I did find a 1GB CF at Sam's Club ($15 US). Turns out I had a 512MB card stuck in one of my laptops, so I'll swap that with the 1GB card. Still a lot of overkill but what do you do? ;-) -- Randy Hammock KC6HUR http://kc6hur.net/~rhammock/ http://irlp.kc6hur.net/ If there are no horses in heaven, then when I die, I want to go where they went.
Randy, The big question is can you DD a 128mb image to a 512MB CF device and still have it work? I've never tried this, but conceivably it should work. I have initialized 512MB CF devices with make cf and it does work for the 512MB Sandisk CF device I have. Steve WA6ZFT Randy Hammock wrote:

I haven't tried this with limey linux, but, I put a fixed-size flash image on larger CF cards all the time....I currently use 1GB kingston CF cards. They're about the smallest/cheapest I can get new. The linux image I'm using is a custom configured OpenWRT image that is roughly 64MB in size. I primarily use pcengines ALIX boards....I'm just now starting to try them with app_rpt....So far, so good! 73, David KB4FXC On Fri, 17 Oct 2008, Stephen Rodgers wrote:
