  I think you should open a TAC case on cisco or contact your cisco
representative. IMHO it's a serious problem, if you can crash your cisco
just by starting asterisk. BTW, have you saved cisco's configuration in
nvram after configuring it. How cisco is configured? is it just ip
gateway or you are using it as Voice gateway? in second case what
hardware: BRI/PRI? what protocol h323/mgcp?
