Building a Drupal Development Server with Hudson, Drush, and the Quick-start Project
Install the Quickstart Development Environment
This tutorial covers building your own development server with a fresh Ubuntu install and the shell scripts from the Quickstart Drupal Development Environment. See: http://drupal.org/project/quickstart
The Quickstart project provides a pre-made virtual box which you can download with links from the project’s page. If you just want to start with the virtual box, then you can skip to the next section which covers adding the Hudson server.
Let's get started.
On your Ubuntu machine (or virtual machine) open a command line (Applications->Accessories->Terminal) and check out the Quickstart files from CVS. Type or paste the following commands:
$ sudo aptitude -y install cvs
$ cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -d quickstart contributions/modules/Quickstart
The above commands pull the Quickstart project files to your Ubuntu box.
