Nope - remember: you make in the order of  zaptel, libpri then asterisk, 
which siggetst at zaptel time, asterisk is not relevant.
On looking at it, my actual problem was that there was no /usr/src/linux 
link to the headers (only a /usr/src/linux-2.4) - there is also a lovely 
rant about redhat in the README file - so all I had to do was:
    ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4 /usr/src/linux
    ./compile.sh

I wish!!
AAH takes over the entire HD & format it accordingly. I would love to 
have split this HD into 2 partition sets, so that I could install AAH on 
the one set and SuSE9.3 with latest asterisk on the other partition set. 
(I dont have time to play with parted and sort this out as this system 
needs to be up and running by tomorrow)

Cheers for now,
Zoltan
