Install vm with vagrant

install devstack with vagrant

install virtualbox (4.2.12 or 4.2.16 but not 4.2.14)
install vagrant (I used the debs for both, v4.x for virtualbox and v1.2.2 for vagrant)

mkdir devstack_vagrant
cd devstack_vagrant
vagrant box add precise32 http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box
vagrant init precise32
vi Vagrantfile

uncomment out to reveal the following:

  config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
  #   # Don't boot with headless mode
  #   vb.gui = true
  #
  #   # Use VBoxManage to customize the VM. For example to change memory:
    vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"] #max allowed is 3584
  end

save

vagrant up && vagrant ssh

ssh-keygen -t <rsa|dsa> # add public key to gerrit

z dependencies

if you are having difficulty loading the dependencies you can add these two files
In ~/.pip/pip.conf :
[global]
index-url = http://pypi.openstack.org/openstack
In ~/.pydistutils.cfg :
[easy_install]
index_url = http://pypi.openstack.org/openstack
note that if you want to use pip or easy_install to access packages not on the openstack repo
you will want to move these files
 
Also: in a devstack setup it appears these files should belong to root (ie in a vagrant vm)
