What is the most stable version of asterisk?

1.2? 1.4? 1.6? 1.8?

Thanks,

Brian,

I haven’t run it, but looking through the code this appears to be a
regression I added in 2.4.1 / current trunk (introduced in r9720 [1]).
I’ve opened issue 18939 and attached some patches if you want to try
them. That way I can add your reported by / tested-by information if
you would like.

Asterisk on a USB with persistence

You can simply use “Portable LinuxLive USB Creator 2.6″ or grub4dos. And
make your USB bootable by any Linux Live ISO.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on a USB with persistence

Hi,

I’m looking to get an ISO of FreePBX or AsteriskNOW installed on a USB that
I can boot from and also be able to save my changes. Is this possible?

My search on web doesn’t seem to find anything useful. For now I don’t have
the option of having a spare machine or creating a partition on my existing
one for my experiments with Asterisk.

My end goal is to have chan_mobile configured and see if I can make calls
through my cellphone using that.

Thanks,

Hitesh
