Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.vm.box = "precise64"

Gave this a try, but got an error:

python: can't open file 'manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

@jroyalty you need place this into the graphite-web git repository. Otherwise it won't find the webapp folder.

I got a Vagrantfile into the main graphite-web repository recently if you want to give that a try. It won't auto-start graphite for you, since its for development - but it will make a box that has all the required prerequisites for running it.
