Raspberry PI - Elastix Beta releases

[Bob1]

For those that have been working with Raspberry PI installs.

I was just wandering through the downloads and notice that there has been a few Raspberry PI releases into Beta with the last one being 2 hours ago (from this post).

I don't know what changes are, but if you are having any issues, probably worth a try...I have my raspberry pi sitting here as well, should get to installing it..

Regards

Bob

thank you sir

I noticed there is a new version for the pi, but why they didn't upload it as iso image!?

The first one I have was an iso image and it was easy to restore it to the SD card under windows.

But this one is not easy at all and do many steps to make it on the SD and finally I didn't get it work and don't know why!!?

I hope please if the admin can upload an image file very sooooooooon.

Thank You.

Sir Bob,

What experience have you obtained with the RaspberryPi? Does it work well with Elastix?

I'm thinking of purchasing one of these boards for testing.



Thanks

Sir Bob,

Where are the distros for the RasPi? And, do you know if they are ISO ready or do I have to make them ISO ready?

I just got 12 of these PIs in Friday and I'm ready to play and learn.


Thank you Sir,

Well since the Elastix for Raspberry Pi is still in Beta and not finished for release yet I have found a solution to at least get a Pi board install Asterisk/FreePbx and do some testing untill Elastix gets a working release done.

It can be found here: http://www.raspberry-asterisk.org/

Although I would prefer to run Elastix, this will get me going and maybe even help out later in development or user questions down the road. It took me about 45 minutes from download to a operating system. This Raspberry Pi (Pi board as I call it) seems to be working very well. I see some interesting possibilities with this board and it's an inexpensive ($35.00 U S) way to put a PBX in operation really quick.

One of my next steps is combining this board with a femtocell and wifi to see how well it performs in the field as a "remote communications devise", more on that later.

Got any ideas on how you would use these devices within the PBX world? Let us know, share your ideas and lets see if we can take Elastix-Pi to another level.

Thanks

I have a few of these in production with the biggest being 9 handsets and 3 sip trunks.

The units are performing above what I expected, they have Freepbx, CSF firewall and webmin on all systems.
Audio quality with 5 simultaneous calls on 1 system was fine with no noticeable decay or choppiness .

Sir David,

Would the install of web-admin & csf be the same procedures as with Elastix?
