Installation guide

Requirements

• Vagrant (version 1.3.0 or higher)
• Virtualbox or VMWare Fusion or Parallels
• Unix based host system (Windows hosts may work nicely with https://github.com/winnfsd/vagrant-winnfsd)
• Lots of free RAM
• Vagrant cachier plugin (optional)

Installation

Clone the repo to a directory of your choosing:

git clone [email protected]:computerminds/parrot.git

And then cd into that directory and run vagrant up:

cd parrot;vagrant up

Vagrant should then download the correct base box, set up the box and then run puppet to pull in all the config, you may need to enter your administrator password to fully set up the NFS shares.

Go grab a coffee or play some table football, as the downloads and setup will take a little while.

You may need to reload the VM to make sure that everything is up correctly, run:

vagrant reload

To do so.
