This Document is deprecated. Refer to Asterisk Install on Debian

If you don't want to follow these instructions and would prefer to download an image you can do so by downloading the image from Asterisk for Raspberry Pi Image.

The following instructions are based on Raspbian (2013-12-20-wheezy-raspbian.zip)

Write Image to SD Card

Using Win32DiskImager and the latest version of Raspbian from Raspberry Pi write the image to the SD card.

Once the image is written insert the SD card into the Raspberry Pi and boot. The device will get an IP address from DHCP.

Update and Configure the OS

Log into the operating system with the default username and password.

Username : pi
Password : raspberry

Run raspi-config and configure all requires settings.

sudo raspi-config

If you have not already done so from raspi-config update the operating system by running:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Set required IP Address

Static_IP_Address_for_Raspbian

Create ll alias

Add the following line

alias ll="ls -la --color --group-directories-first --time-style=\"+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M\""

to the file /home/pi/.profile

reboot

sudo reboot
