Hmm.. 

Get yourself a decent server. While you can make Asterisk run, you won't
make it run properly.

Sure. For starters, keep everything under $HOME.

Start with ./configure --prefix=/home/asterisk

Again, it will make asterisk build. Running it properly is a different
thing. Asterisk is a resource-sensitive program. If it won't get enough
CPU on time, you get bad audio.
