</div>Could you be specific? I think that some messages may be<br>

<br>README starts with "check hardware compliance".<br>So maybe, the policy is to have a "somehow functional system with any of mentioned compliant hardware, with all enhancements such as running as non-root, set apart".<br>

# which modules to load: a temporary workaround</blockquote><div><br>That's the point : if optimizing modules load could be postponed to a later stage, that would be better, IMHO, as installing from source is already a long process.<br>

asterisk -rx 'dahdi restart'</blockquote><div><br>IMHO, setting a policy would help to guide efforts of many people involved.<br>That done, maybe we would conclude an interactive script would be the missing piece to incorporate user choices that are hard to default to.<br>
