Editing Installing Trixbox 2.0 in CentOS VE

== Introduction ==
Here is what I did to installed Trixbox 2.0 in a CentOS VE.  I found quite a bit of information scattered over the web and even one in the OpenVZ Forum.  Note that my installation doesn't use any hardware such as Zaptel.  I still see a warning about "can't load zaptel", but I have still been able to use my VEs.  Yes, I have installed several of these.

== Basic Steps ==
Here are the basic steps with details later:
# Create VE from CentOS Template.
# Add character device /dev/tty9 to VE
# Install rpmforge & apt
# Add DAG repository
# Install yum
# Install speex and libspeex-devel
# Download Trixbox 2.0 tar.gz file (not ISO) and extract to /var/trixbox_load
# Change to /var/trixbox_load and run install.sh script
   NOTE: You may need to run the script several times.  Just seems like YUM doesn't 
         install all the packages at the same time.  I am not sure what's up here.

== Detailed Steps ==
# Create VE from CentOS Template.
#* eg. vzctl create 204 --ostemplate centos-4-i386-default --config vps-basic
--You will need to create a template using the tools ( vzpkgcache -f)
eg. vzsplit -n 25 -f NAME (This creates stats for 25 virtual servers all sharing equal resources)

--Also set an ip and nameserver using the following:
vzctl set 204 --ipadd XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX --save
vzctl set 101 --nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX --save
# Add character device /dev/tty9 to VE
#* eg. vzctl set 204 --devices c:4:9:rw --save
#* NOTE: If you are using zaptel or capi, then you will need to add those devices to the VE.  One of the links in the resource section will show you how to do this.
# Install rpmforge & apt
#* You may check for the most recent release of rpmforge and apt.
## Intall RPMFORGE
#* SITE="http://dag.wieers.com/packages/rpmforge-release/"
#* rpm -Uvh ${SITE}/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm 
## Install APT
##* STIE="http://dag.wieers.com/packages/apt/"
##* rpm -Uvh ${SITE}/apt-0.5.15lorg3.2-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm 
# Add DAG repository for yum
#* wget http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
#* rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
#* mkdir -p /etc/yum.repos.d
#* Create a file /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo, with:
#*:   [dag]
#*:   name=Dag RPM Repository for Red ht Enterprise Linux
#*:   baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
#*:   gpgcheck=1
#*:   enabled=1
# Install yum
## Try installing yum via apt-get
##* apt-get update
##* apt-get install yum
## If that failed, then try doing the easy way. :)
##: Install a newer rpm (rpm-4.3.3-18_nonptl.i386.rpm) which you can find in Google.
##* rpm -Uvh rpm-4.3.3-18_nonptl.i386.rpm
##* rpm --import http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-4
##* SITE=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS
##*: rpm -Uvh ${SITE}/yum-2.4.3-1.c4.noarch.rpm ${SITE}/libxml2-python-2.6.16-6.i386.rpm ${SITE}/python-elementtree-1.2.6-4.2.1.i386.rpm  ${SITE}/python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.i386.rpm   ${SITE}/rpm-python-4.3.3-18_nonptl.i386.rpm  ${SITE}/python-urlgrabber-2.9.8-2.noarch.rpm  ${SITE}/centos-release-4-4.2.i386.rpm ${SITE}/sqlite-3.3.3-1.2.i386.rpm
##*: NOTE: the whole thing is just one long command, use '\' to break it up.
--Note You may need to download and install (rpm -Uvh) dependencies before you can get Yum to work. The dependencies will be listed in the error messages if the install doesnt complete correctly. Wget dependencies from here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/


# Install speex and libspeex-devel
#* rpm -Uvh ${SITE}/speex-1.0.4-4.i386.rpm ${SITE}/speex-devel-1.0.4-4.i386.rpm
-Note You may need to download and install (rpm -Uvh) dependencies before you can get Speex to work (Mainly LibOOG and LibOOG-devel). The dependencies will be listed in the error messages if the install doesnt complete correctly. Wget dependencies from here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/

# Download [http://www.trixbox.org Trixbox 2.0] tar.gz file (not ISO) and extract to /var/trixbox_load
# Change to /var/trixbox_load
#* mkdir /var/trixbox_load
#* tar zxf trixbox-2.0.tar.gz -C /var/trixbox_load/
#  Run install.sh script
## I find that I need to run this script several time, 2 or 3, and that it is best to reboot before running the first time.
##* cd /var/trixbox_load/
##* ./install.sh
