s/safe_asterisk/asterisk/ . Just run 'asterisk' , and you're done.

It is actually less buggy as it has a proper pid file. Currently the
Debian init.d script is buggy for the safe_asterisk case for that point.
There's an open bug which I have no idea how to handle. 

Not to mention that safe_asterisk assumes for some reason that you have
a certain tty open (console). Trying to adapt it to run with screen is a
pain. And why do you need the asterisk console in the first place when
you have the logs and asterisk -r? Why generate the extra burden of
verbose logging in the common case?

In some cases it will cause more harm. It may cause frequent restarts.

And then again: how do you stop it?

The script is horribly buggy

One person on the internet says not to use it.

If you launch asterisk manually twice, you won't get a problem. It will
report you that it is already running.
