This is a step by step of what I did to set up a developer environment for my MSc. The reason for bogging this is two fold
- 1 it is a way for me to make notes of what I am doing
- 2 thought it would be nice to share my experience.

WARNING: This is a live step by step of what I am doing. So scroll to the bottom of this blog to find out if I was successful.

Step 1
A clean install of Ubuntu Deskop 9.04.
Update the system

Step 2
lets do the easy things first and install Ubuntu Server and LAMP

Click System --> Administration --> Synaptic Package Manager

This brings up the Synaptic Package Manager

Click Edit --> Mark Packages by Task

put a check mark or tick in Basic Ubuntu Server and LAMP
then click OK
then click Mark
then click Apply

I have now discovered the universal answer to everything you ever wanted to know. It doesn't matter how complicated the question is or how strange or how simple the question is, there is a universal answer to everything.

For the first time ever I am now going to annouce the Universal Answer. The answer to every single question on the planet can be reduced to two words.
