really easy Debian Asterisk Install
Over the past month, we have been working hard to refine the install document for the Asterisk and debian install. Digium released the DAHDI libraries over this time so the document has been brought right up to date with this info. You can check it out here
But thats not this biggest news! A while ago I stumbled upon a script by Yoann Queret which installs Debian, Asterisk and freePBX in one go using pretty much the same method that I wrote in the howto on the WIKI. Since then, I modified Yoan’s script (with his permission) to provide a fully automated install of Asterisk, DAHDI, freePBX, you only have to type in the mysql passwords and press enter about 8 times and your done!
The script is available here, please report back with any issues you may have with it.

Gentlemen, very nice work on this script. One thing I found with your vs Yoann’s (which I helped point this out to him as well) is that there is a bug in Asterisk when you compile that does not allow the creation of the voice mail files. He did a work around and I wanted to see if you would verify this still exsists. I believe it does. Thanks. Here is the code he used.
#echo “> Apply patch on apps/app_voicemail.c”
#echo “> READ http://forums.digium.com/viewtopic.php?t=18332”
#echo ” Press to continue”
#read
#
#sed -i “s/\(chmod(template*\)\(.*\)/\/* \1 \2 *\//” apps/app_voicemail.c
#sed -i “s/\(chmod(newtmp*\)\(.*\)/\/* \1 \2 *\//” apps/app_voicemail.c
#sed -i “s/\(chmod(tmptxtfile*\)\(.*\)/\/* \1 \2 *\//” apps/app_voicemail.c
Also, you may want to add installing sox and mpg123 as they are needed for uploading your own files for music on hold.
Great work!
