Chapter 3. Installing Asterisk > Preparing to install Asterisk

Preparing to install Asterisk

In order to install Asterisk, we will need a computer with Linux installed. It's a good idea to ensure your system is up-to-date, for instance, by using the yum tool. Once we have installed our distribution of choice, we need to make sure we have a few additional packages installed. The required extra packages over a base installation are:

  • Bison, and associated -devel (1.0.X only) gcc

  • Kernel-source

  • Libtermcap-devel

  • ncurses, and associated -developenssl, and associated -develzlib, and associated -devel
