Two small notes about chef conventions (assumptions), after I got my test installation running. <ol> <li>It assumes the target system has sudo installed</li> <li>It uses the name of the directory in cookbooks as the recipie key</li> </ol> These were two unexpected annoyances but were easily worked around. The Resource class that handles APT is quite nice, despite my initial concern that it was only installing one package at a time. 2009-04-02T13:00:40Z 51 true 2009-04-02T13:00:40Z
