Installing Asterisk

cd /usr/src/asterisk-1.4*
./configure

The next step is not mandatory. To install core and extra sounds in different languages:

make menuselect

Select the core-sounds you would like to play and extra sounds. Exit with "x" to save.

make
make install
make samples
make config
asterisk -vvvc
stop now
echo "ztdummy" >> /etc/modules

Note: If you make a mistake and/or the compilation fails, you need to run:

make clean

then

./configure

and

make install

again.

Reboot and test if the system startup is correct.

reboot

asterisk -r
exit

Install Asterisk-Addons

cd /usr/src/asterisk-addons*
./configure && make && make install
make samples
