VoiceBuntu is an ‘Ubuntu’ based live Linux distribution.

It’s focus is on running asterisk with no installation needed.

VoiceBuntu has integrated VoiceOne for configuration convenience.

VoiceBuntu – i.e. Ubuntu itself – has built in boot prompt cheap code one can use called ‘persistent’.
This feature allows the user to use VoiceBuntu’s ‘persistent’ feature in order to keep settings on a flash disk or memory stick. For more information about this persistency please see this link.

To start, just burn the ISO file on a CD-ROM then start the live cd distribution and wait until everything is ready.

Please note, that apache will start at the very last moment of the boot cycle. So you may a to wait 1 or 2 minutes to let everything load. Once everything is prepared, start your browser and point to the IP address of your running VoiceBuntu (i.e. http://192.168.0.10).

If you have no DHCP Server available you can press ‘F6′ at boot screen and add additionally add the command parameter

static=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx bcast=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx gateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dns1=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dns2=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP of your choice. By that VoiceBuntu boots with static IP address on eth0 network device.

That’s all.

Enjoy! :-)
