Just a reminder: The original Raspberry Pi uses a SoC with an ARM core
that doesn't support the ARMv7 architecture (though it does have
floating-point support). Thus most ARM-based distributions will not work
on it, and you'll typically need to run Raspbian on it. Nowadays, unless
you have an older one or you buy a rpi-zero, this is not what you use.

Nowadays we have rPi2 and rPi3. They are quad-core (though generally
only the first core can handle interrupts. So when looking at top, be
sure to press '1' for per-core information). The rPi3 should be able to
run arm64, but this seems mostly theoretical (not sure if it is
supported in practice) and you get a system slightly faster and mostly
compatible with the rPi2.

For such a small system, I think that even the original rPi would do.
The rPi2 will certaily do.

What stops it from building properly on armhf architecture?


Check with the developers on prebuilt AstLinux

There is also a custom build environment, but it reportedly doesn't support ARM 
processors either

Well above my paygrade

Re: [asterisk-users] rasberry pi

2016-07-06 Thread John Novack

Another good choice for SOHO applications is an older HP Thin Client, such as a 
5720. Using AstLinux on it's flash memory, 512K or 1 Gig, with 512K memory. The 
HP thin clients are available used, often quite inexpensive, and are already 
packaged.
AstLinux can be remotely managed with the GUI, which unlike other Asterisk GUI's the conf 
files are not modified by the GUI and can be edited "by the book"
AstLinux will NOT work with a Pi though. It is not for the ARM processor.

In a telephone collectors network, we have more than 30 nodes running, some for 
many years, using AstLinux and various thin clients. The HP's area nice package 
that can be configured and mounted to a wall and simply forgotten.
Sometimes one can be found with the PCI expansion chassis that would allow one 
PCI card to be added for analog or even a T1 interface.
Search AstLinux for much more information

I haven't used it extensively but I run Asterisk on an older Raspberry
(not Rasberry btw) Pi for demo purposes and never saw any issues.  If
all of your phones are internal it's probably not even carrying voice
traffic as long as you set "directmedia=yes" in sip.conf.  I would be
surprised if it couldn't handle hundreds of phones easily.  Even if you
have to proxy the voice traffic (e.g. your phones are behind a NAT) it
should have no trouble with three concurrent calls.

[asterisk-users] rasberry pi

I'm debating between a cloud PBX or, perhaps, rasberry pi.  For a SOHO,
maybe three hardphones, rasberry pi would suffice?  I would be amazed, but,
if so, great.
