Even with the O-Reilly book, which I purchased in paper, although it is freely downloadable, I feel there is a huge dearth of information.  As I have become a bit involved, I find there is more than meets the eye, but it is spread across the entire internet!  So far I am not aware of anything that fits any of three categories I feel are essential:

Occasionally someone writes such a HOWTO. It varies between versions 
and by your setup.

Checked for 1.6.0 and on. See asterisk.pdf (and later also an HTML copy)
under doc/ .

As for DAHDI: a starting point would be the README files included in
dahdi-linux and dahdi-tools . See them also in:

  http://docs.tzafrir.org.il/dahdi-linux/
  http://docs.tzafrir.org.il/dahdi-tools/

Or use 'make docs'
