[Chicago] hack night tomorrow

[Randy Baxley]

I am to much of a noob to hack nights to know if this will be useful but it
looks to me like it would if I was more up on ssh.  I am beginning to git
confused as to the states of these things on my desktop and notebook.

Hi Randy,

I would recommend installing VirtualBox and Vagrant and use the
hacknight_vagrant installer, which will give you a lot of tools including
ipython, python 2.6, postgis, R, etc.

https://github.com/emphanos/hacknight_vagrant

git clone https://github.com/emphanos/hacknight_vagrant.git

cd hacknight_vagrant

vagrant up

# use and ssh client like putty or cygwin's openssh to login as
vagrant at 127.0.0.1  on port 2222

# to install python 2.7 inside your new VirtualBox VM use these commands below

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python2.7
