Following is my distro infos

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
Release: 12.04
Codename: precise

The hypervisor i wanna use is XEN or QEMU/KVM. Actually, i wanna
begin from a easier one. Would you please give me some suggestions.

What's more, i have investigated some documents of installing Ganeti.

1, https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/wiki/GanetiInVagrant

This is suggested by my mentor (Lance Albertson) , which is very useful and
easy to experience Ganeti. However, i think it can just test/experience some
versions of Ganeti and i cannot hack myself. Actually, i wanna take a
little change
of Ganeti source codes then run again, which it will benefit my project idea
"Gluster Ganeti support".

2, https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/wiki/GanetiInVirtualBox

This one let us build Ganeti in VirtualBox with many VMs(nodes), which install
XEN/KVM in these VMs. Actually, i am not clear about the relationships between
VMs and XEN/KVM. I think the ideal condition is that we build XEN/KVM just on
a VM(Virtual Box, etc) or one server(physical hardware), then set up
many VMs(dom0)
by XEN/KVM and configure Ganeti on these VMs(dom0). Perhaps, i should take a
closer look at the relationships between Ganeti, Virtual Box and XEN/KVM.

3, http://docs.ganeti.org/ganeti/master/html/install.html

This is the core document of how to deploy Ganeti. In fact, i just wanna build
a one node(standalone) Ganeti environment that i can develop and test "Gluster
Ganeti support". At last, i should test it on a cluster.

Perhaps, we should build a sub-project that develops a one-key script
for deploying
Ganeti(Like devstack for Openstack project). I am very happy to do
these jobs(develop
a one-key script) during my project "Gluster Ganeti support".
