Create virtual disk of pan.do/ra

== ubuntu-vm-builder setup ==

due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vm-builder/+bug/676132
we need to use maverick-proposed repository:

 echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-proposed restricted main multiverse universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubunt-proposed.list
 apt-get update
 apt-get -t maverick-proposed install ubuntu-vm-builder


due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/vmbuilder/+bug/683614
building vbox images does not work. install virtualbox_vm.py:
    sudo cp virtualbox_vm.py /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/virtualbox/vm.py

(or change vbox to kvm to build kvm image)

with that installed build image:

 ./build.sh

this will create a vdi image in pandora/

== VirtualBox Usage ==
Now you can create a new VirtualBox machine, use vdi image as existing hard disk.
Before starting up you have to adjust some settings:
 In System -> Processor enable PAE/NX
 In Storage remove disk from SATA Controller
            add disk to IDE Controler and enable "Use host I/O cache"
    
 In Network -> Adpater 1 set to Bridged Adapter with your connected controller

== Use for development ==
Login via ssh or in terminal as pandora with password pandora

Adjust your bzr configuration with bzr whoami:
 bzr whoami "Pando the Panda <pan.do@pan.do>"

Pan.do/ra is installed in /srv/pandora and is served with nginx on http://pandora.local


== Update ==
to get the latest version of pan.do/ra
 cd /srv/pandora
 bzr pull
 cd static/oxjs
 bzr pull

you might have to adjust the database at this point. now restart pandora daemons

 service pandora restart
 service pandora-tasks restart
 service pandora-encoding restart
