- on which linux flavour i should start the installation of asterisk 
(CentOs,Fedora,Ubuntu)
  right now i am using ubuntu 8.04lts

I use Centos 5.3

- What are the essential packages.

The book explains which packages you need to get a basic Asterisk up and 
running.

- whats is PRI, BRI interfaces

These are used if you want to connect Asterisk to normal standard phone lines. 
If you are just using SIP and making internet calls, you don’t need these. You 
can call to and from standard phone lines if you get a SIP provider. 

Take a look at this website. It has quite a good list of providers:-

- what is asterisk now

It is an installation DVD containing all of the basic options needed to run 
asterisk. If you use it, then you wont need to go through most of the 
configuration that the book discusses.

I preferred to use the book, because then i know a bit more about what is 
happening.
