Discourse as Your First Rails App

Here is a quick and dirty translation of Getting Started for Debian/Ubuntu users if you want to toss it in a script or something:

  1. sudo apt-get install git virtualbox nfs-common nfs-kernel-server
  2. wget http://files.vagrantup.com/packages/64e360814c3ad960d810456add977fd4c7d47ce6/vagrant_x86_64.deb
  3. sudo dpkg -i vagrant_x86_64.deb
  4. Open a terminal
  5. Clone the project: git clone git@github.com:discourse/discourse.git
  6. Enter the project directory: cd discourse

Then continue on with the rest of the instructions … (I’m getting an error with the NFS client thing, but that should work, I’m investigating that and will update this when I find the cause.)
