Pbx in a flash iso

Plenty Hard It turns out that there are lots of variables to test when running a Linux guest in a virtual machine. Even with that constant, there are a lot of variables, which made finding a workable solution quite a lot of work: VMWare or Microsoft? With or without the Linux VM Additions offered by each vendor?

What kernel options to use? How to install CentOS when the installer uses bit video and makes the screen illegible? Download the PBX in a Flash 1. At the first install prompt, type ksalt. This starts the install in text mode, which avoids the issue with the bit video. It also does not use the LVM file system, which apparently adds unnecessary overhead according to jroper. I deliberately chose a very simple root password during the setup so I could take this virtual machine to client sites one day if needed.

After the install completes, it will reboot. Quickly detach the ISO file or it will go back into the installation again. WinZip is great for creating a compressed snapshot of the virtual machine. Immediately after CentOS Install. Make sure that CentOS is online. Regarding the clock source, see Microsoft KB , but note that clocksource is now preferred to clock see this post.

Normally you would need to run yum update kernel , reboot, then run yum install kernel-devel gcc to get the kernel source. However, it seems that the PiaF already includes the kernel source, so this step is not needed with PiaF.

Disable ntpd for all runlevels as follows: chkconfig --list ntpd show current ntpd runlevels the default is On for 3, 4, and 5 chkconfig --level ntpd off turn off for all runlevels applies at boot time chkconfig --list ntpd confirm that change worked service ntpd stop shut down the server now service ntpd status confirm that it stopped Note: When you first log on to a PiaF system, you will see a table of services and their statuses. Not sure if that was a dig on traditional Asterisk or trixbox.

I know in trixbox you can pick and choose which modules to install via an easy to use GUI. Anyway, he also pointed out that you can add your own feature requests to the growing Wish List on the Nerd Vittles Forum.
