asterisk users - Nov 2005 - FW: Asterisk 1.0/1.2 on cobalt Raq2-4

Anyone ever tried to install on a Cobalt Raq device? This is a 1U 19" rack
computer, the Raq2 using a Mips processor, the Raq4 using a K6-2/3 processor.

As I do have a few of these as spares, I was wondering if I could use them as my
pbx system,  because of their low power-system and dence system box.

I simply need the pbx to serve 2 phones in my appartment, a SIP- connection for
4 external internet devices (my brother, living in the USA, my parents, living a
few miles from here, and my nefew living in France and his mother, living here
in Belgium too)

Has anyone done this setup on a Raq2? Or do I need to use the extra power of the
Raq4 (faster cpu and mem, bigger faster disk, ...)

Anyone having a pkg-installer for the raq devices, as they are used for updates
etc...?

Thanks

Bram,
 
I'm not sure this issue will be one of performance. I think you will find
cross-compiling Asterisk to the MIPS platform more challenging.
 
For this reason, I would recommend using the RAQ4 on the basis that at
K6-2/3 is based on Intel Architecture and would make the process of getting
your box operational much easier.
 
Hope this helps,
 
Neil
