[Aaug] Asterisk Installation Benchmarks T-minus 229 Hours

[Steven Henke]

FYI, here are the results of some experiments for the installation part of
the Install Fest.

Hardware Used: Intel P4 2.66 GHz, 1G RAM, 5325 bogomips, on a BellSouth
ADSL - 3251 kbps down - 383 kbps up Internet connection.

Trixbox 2.1.5 (2.2 Beta 5) Install Time = 13 min.

EasyVoxBox 0.007 Install Time = 27 min.

This Trixbox distribution is very nice. It's now much easier to install
additional packages like Webmin. The OS is Centos 4.4 and with a 2.6.9
kernel.  Asterisk and Trixbox binaries are installed.

The nice thing about EasyVoxBox is that because Asterisk and Zaptel are
compiled locally you have the sources and can update them more easily. Of
course you pay the price in a longer install time. Installing webmin was
not easy because several package dependencies had to be tracked down
manually. The OS is also Centos 4.4 with a 2.6.9 kernel.

More Later,
