3. Installation
3.1 Obtaining the software
easyAsterisk is distributed as a self installing bootable CD, or as an ISO image ready to burn with
your favourite burning software. The ISO image is available for the download on the internet site
http://www.easyasterisk.org. The installation process is totally automated and pratically requires no
interaction with the end user. When booted up, easyAsterisk’s CD will automatically install the
operating system (CentOS), Asterisk and all its components (compiling when needed the source code
included in the installation CD), and our WEB management portal (including all related software such
as php, apache server and mysql).
You have to remember that the installation process will automatically partition and format the
hard disk; this means that all the previously stored data will be lost.
3.2 Hardware requirements
easyAsterisk requires a standard PC equipped with 32 bits processor, hard disk starting from 2 Gbytes
minimum and CD-ROM reader. PC hardware requests, for what concerns Cpu and Ram, may depend
on installation goal (number of contemporary voice channels, number of trunks and so on). Today’s
hardware (let’s say starting from Pentium IV) is normally able to support even the greater
deployments.
Note: some users have reported problems on PC equipped with Pentium 4 with Hyper Threading
technology activated (BRI, PRI and Analogical telco interfaces management). We therefore
recommend to disable Hyper Threading before installing easyAsterisk.
