[Blind-sysadmins] Asterisk

Hi All, I am running Asterisk 1.4 successfully on CentOS 5.5. Can anyone point me to some accessible resources to learn how to configure this beast? I am confident I can figure it out as I am well versed in Cisco routers and switches. Best Regards, Billy L.

Go to http://www.driverpacks.net Download the base and install it. Next, download the mass storige driver pack which contains drivers for most of the sata controlers in existance. Copy the unextracted file into the driverpacks folder that installing the base created. Copy your xp disk someware writable and run the base. You can more or less skip through the screens; just point the base to your xp install and tick the box for mass storige. After that, instead of clicking next or > as it sometimes shows up as, just click slipstream. Note that this will overwrite your winnt.sif, so make sure that you have a backup copy - the only important thing that it does is adds a entry in the gui run once section which you can just copy & paste into the original sif but it's not really needed. Make an iso from the modified xp install and burn it to cd. You should now be able to see the sata drive. However, to put a spanner in the works, the xp installer can have a bit of a stress on some newer chipsets / sata controlers even if you have slipstreamed the drivers. If your finding that your getting blue screens in the install, go into the bios, look for something called ahci and enable it. Hth. On 22/05/2010, Jackie McBride wrote:

Also, I forgot to mention that if u have the drivers, download them to a folder on your hd, then use NLite for your unattended.

Frank, get some sighted help, go into bios, & make sure that ide mode is set as the type of emulation. Since bioses vary widely, I can't tell u precisely where to go--you'll just have to poke around a bit.

I think you will have to go through the vendor of the SATA controller to do that. SATA was sorta new when XP came out.

Hi all I am trying to do an unattended XP Pro install onto an Lenovo T61 and the Windows setup program does not recognize the SATA hard drive. Is there any generic SATA drivers I can get that I can slipstream into my install CD to get it to work? Thanks Frank
