DIAL distribution : a few questions

App_rpt-users
1

Hi,

  After my first attempts with manual compilation on a Cubox (ARM7),

I saw the new DIAL distribution, and I installed it on a RPi2.
Thank you, Steve, for the great work :slight_smile: The choice of a Debian
base, and the choice of the targets (rpi2 and i386) are exactly
what I need :slight_smile:

  Now, a few questions :

  1/ I saw a 'warning' about upgrading the kernel on ARM7 platforms,

because itā€™s not fully supported by Debian. Can we safely do an
ā€œapt-get upgradeā€, or should we make a sdcard backup before ?

  2/ Are the Asterisk and app_rpt sources included ? If so, where ?

  3/ How will the future app_rpt updates made available ?

Toussaint,

Thanks for the kind words.

1: A backup is always a good idea. The problem with a kernel upgrade

is that the kernel headers also need to be upgraded also. The DAHDI
needs to be re-built. apt-get upgrade should still be safe.

2: Yes, source to DAHDI, Asterisk and of course app_rpt is included.

the source used to compile DAHDI and Asterisk are at
/usr/srv/astsrc-1.4.23-pre

2: Since we use the svn for the source, the plan is to checkout

changes and re-compile. Not a full re-compile, just the changes
modules.
