# -q -y options in apt-get install will assume “yes” to everything (and do it quietly). v.g. sudo apt-get -q -y install <package_name> 

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install tcsh
sudo apt-get install gfortran

sudo apt-get install xaw3dg-dev
sudo apt-get install xaw3dg
sudo apt-get install libxt6

In unix:

1. Start using grub (if grub doesn't appear, press shift key during booting)
2.- Choose recovery mode (usually the second option).
3.- In the next submenu, choose  "netroot" ("root" in newer versions) --> we will be prompt as superusers without asking for password
4.- You will need write rights (by the default the / is mount as read only)
    mount -rw -o remount /
5.- Change the password
  passwd your user_name
    ej. passwd julian

All the steps are needed because of library dependencies: 

1.- Download and Install mysql from: http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
2.- install mysql-python
  a) If you install it using pip install mysql-python: it will be installed at /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/...
  b) If you install it downloading the src and building it, it is installed at /LibraryFrameworks/Python.framework/Version/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages
      i) This is the option that worked for me because the system had 2.6 but I was using python 2.7. 
      ii) Download the code from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/?source=dlp
      iii) python setup.py build
      iv) sudo python setup.py install

Tomcat installation:

    sudo apt-get install tomcat7 (Minimun installation)
    sudo apt-get install tomcat7-admin tomcat7-common tomcat7-docs tomcat7-examples
    This installation implies that tomcat is installed as a service. /usr/share/tomcat7/bin/startup.sh cannot be used to start tomcat. 

Set up environment variables. Edit .bashrc and add:

    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java
    export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/tomcat7
