Darryl, The build environment isn't for everyone. It's expected that the end-user has some slightly more than basic linux knowledge. That being said, the documentation is pretty clear. If you follow those instructions, you should get a working system.
There are some slightly older published images with Asterisk 1.6.2.x (don't recall the exact version). When I build the next set of 0.7 images, I'll build images with Asterisk 1.6 and make them available too.
