I've had this trying to install Asterisk on a machine with a VIA processor. Turned out to be VIA's fault for pretending to be an i686 when in fact it only supported a subset of i686 instructions (and Asterisk wanted to use one of the ones that it didn't). The cure was to make distclean and re-compile for an i586 target. Please post the contents of /proc/cpuinfo on the machine which is failing to run Asterisk. -- AJS Answers come *after* questions. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
