Drupal Quickstart customization

Here are some things I did to customize Drupal QuickStart for me :

Setup to enable SSH / XWindows access into the VM :

- Set network interface to bridged (not NAT)

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install openssh-server

Set window controls to right

$ gconf-editor &

"Apps -> Metacity -> General". Edit "button_layout".

Change "maximize,minimize,close" to

"menu:maximize,minimize,close". Exit gconf-editor.

Update Quickstart image per http://drupal.org/project/quickstart

$ cd ~/quickstart
$ git pull
$ bash -x update.sh

============

$ cd ~/websites
$ cat default.make
$ drush => see quickstart commands

$ drush quickstart-create -domain=test.dev

=> Firefox go to http://test.dev

$ drush help quickstart-create

$ drush quickstart-destroy -domain=test.dev
