[Asterisk-bsd] * Not working after upgrade

[Matthias Fechner]

Hello Frank,

> I tried everything but it's still a no go. So today I backed up my server and then blasted the drives away with a fresh install using 6.1-RELEASE. I am updating the ports collection now. This machine is an old P166 and that takes about 30-45 minutes. Then I will rebuild * from scratch. Since it will need everything reinstalled it will take about 26 hours to do this on this old server. And that's if I manage to catch all the screens that require input. It's going to be a long night.

I've been told that I can use it to cross compile software...but as usual, no one can tell me how. The only answers I've gotten on this are RTFM, but I can't find this information anywhere in the handbook and countless google and yahoo searches have only yielded sparce references to the subject. Can anyone tell me how I cross compile between these two machines or where I can find detailed instructions on how to do it?

you can use pkg_add to install precomplied version of this packages.
It should be much faster for testing.


Best regards,
Matthias
