Sprinkles for Apache, Passenger, Mysql, Memcached & Git

How to get your sprinkle on:

• Get a brand spanking new slice / host (Ubuntu please)
• Create yourself a user, add yourself to the /etc/sudoers file
• Set your slices url / ip address in deploy.rb (config/deploy.rb.example provided)
• Set username in config/deploy.rb if it isn't the same as your local machine (config/deploy.rb.example provided)

From your local system (from the passenger-stack directory), run:

sprinkle -c -s install.rb

After you've waited for everything to run, you should have a provisioned slice. Go forth and install your custom configurations, add vhosts and other VPS paraphernalia.
