Installing AppScale from source on GitHub

In a clean Ubuntu Lucid virtual machine, begin by logging in as root and installing git:

apt-get install -y git-core

Then, grab the latest stable AppScale from GitHub and build it:

git clone git://github.com/AppScale/appscale.git --branch master
cd appscale/debian
bash appscale_build.sh

Finally, install the AppScale tools in the virtual machine:

git clone git://github.com/AppScale/appscale-tools.git --branch master
cd appscale-tools/debian
bash appscale_build.sh

If you want to use this image for a Xen or KVM-style deployment, just reboot your virtual machine and you're good to go. If you want to use this image for Eucalyptus or Amazon EC2 please see either the Eucalptus page or EC2 page for further instructions.
