[OOTB-hive] Volunteers required to test DISTRO build script

I've been putting together an alfresco build based on puppet. It builds 
on the work done by Loftux for his install script, in fact it mostly 
converts his shell script into the equivalent puppet commands to do the 
same job, except it parameterizes a few different things and it installs 
the javascript console (other addons will be added if this becomes the 
build for DISTRO).

The project works in three modes of operation: as a puppet script, which 
can be used in a puppetmaster environment, a Vagrant script which is 
mostly useful for testing, and as a standalone installer.

The standalone installer is a simple bash script which will accept some 
parameters and generate a puppet script which is then used by puppet in 
standalone mode to bring the system into a configured state.

I am seeking some volunteers to test the installer for me. You will need 
a new VM with Ubuntu installed (tested with 12.04 and 14.04), and the 
only other package you need to have installed is 'git'. All other 
dependencies will be managed by the script. The project is here 
https://github.com/marsbard/puppet-alfresco and you can find the 
installation instructions in the README.

If you notice any problems in the build please send me the puppet output 
that was logged to the screen as well as the usual catalina.out 
extracts. I would also be very pleased to hear about successful builds too.

Thanks in advance,
Martin
