39 For testing, you also need the YAML module for Python (http://pyyaml.org/).
41 For building from source, you also need tar, gzip or bzip2 and make.
44 Installation of the software
45 ============================
47 To install, simply do ``./configure --localstatedir=/var && make && make install``
49 This will install the software under /usr/local. You then need to copy
50 ganeti.init to /etc/init.d/ganeti and integrate it into your boot sequence
51 (``chkconfig``, ``update-rc.d``, etc.).
54 Cluster initialisation
55 ======================
57 Before initialising the cluster, on each node you need to create the following
61 - /srv/ganeti, /srv/ganeti/os, /srv/ganeti/export
63 After this, use ``gnt-cluster init``.
