Six monthes ago Debian 3.1 was released. Let's forget ancient history
(Woody was released in 2002. Hmm... still a bit after XP).

BTW: Sid now has 1.2.1 packages for the braves among you. Expect a Sarge
backport this weekend.

 
 There are many areas where 2.6 improves upon 2.4 from processor and 
 interrupt scalability to latency improvements.  I would recommend any 
 new server be installed with a 2.6 kernel unless there is some workload 
 that requires a specific 2.4 kernel.  I believe most of those were 
 removed with the 2.6.5 to 2.6.8 anonVMA changes by Andrea.

Right. Though 2.6 is kind of a moving target that keeps mutating

From what ive read on this list and the wiki, centos 4.x has issues with the
TE110P card ( a lot of people having issues after first reboot).Would 3.5 be
better (I know [EMAIL PROTECTED] uses this) 

Am I right in saying that OS's with the 1.6 kernel still require a lot more
tinkering than those with the 1.4 kernel ?? Does anybody know what Digiums
stance on OS is , I remember speaking to them about 6 months ago and they
were recommending a 1.4 kernel version of Debian. 

Are there any specific disadvantages to running 1.4 kernel ??,

IMHO use FC4.

Also after the install of the OS and all the required packages do a 'yum
update'.

Hi

I wish to install asterisk 1.2 (the latest tar.gz from the site not the
CVS version) on an HP box with a TE110P (single port E1/T1)

My question is which OS would be preferred in this configuration Fedora Core
1 or Fedora Core 3, and are there any install guides out there that are
recent enough for asterisk 1.2

I am also open to suggestions for other Operating Systems if any of you feel
that FC1/3 are not the best for the job, my only definates are that I use
the latest tar.gz from the asterisk.org website not the CVS and also that I
will be using the TE110p

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Try Fedora Core 4 (FC4).  Works great.

I am using FC3 right now with 1.0.9 and I am having a problem updating
to 1.2.1.  I am trying to avoid upgrading to FC4 and I'll try a yum
update hopefully that will work without breaking anything.

Why not latest Fedora?

I don't know Fedora that well to give you recomendations here. I have my
own preferences. But there is a point worthmentioning regarding Fedora:

Fedora does not seem to provide long-term maintinance. Security updates
for Fedora are provided for a relatively short period. there is a
community project called Fedora Legacy to provide maintinance for older
Fedoras, but it has ggained reputation of not providing timely updates.

So:

1. is there a decent upgrade path? Would you use 'yum upgrade' (or
whatever the command is) to upgrade your server from FC3 to FC4? from
FC1 to FC4?

2. Alternatively: how well does Fedora Legacy is lately?

2006-01-03 Thread Technical Support
We do a lot of installs on Fedora (slowly becoming our favorite).  Initially
clients asked for FC because of compatibility with Red Hat, great package
management, etc.   With FC4, you get a great set of packages, and not a lot
of add-ons required.

Asterisk has perfect compatibility with FC3  FC4 - a good choice.
