[ILUG] PBX for home use

[Niall O Broin]

I want to set up a PBX at home. I have some previous experience with Asterisk, but that knowledge is so stale now, I may as well be starting again. My requirements are fairly simple:

A couple of trunks supplied by Blueface (currently terminating on a Linksys WRTG54P2).

N extensions, N << 10.

I have no phone line, so no FXO ports needed.

I'd like something I can easily install on an existing Ubuntu box (it's a little FIT PC, with no CD drive, so installing a new distribution would be a bit tedious).  I guess the quickest way to get going would be something like Trixbox, except for previous comments about installation.  I've been reading a bit about Freeswitch, but its main benefits over Asterisk seem to be scalability, not really a concern for me in this case.

Suggestions?
