Vagrant is pretty easy to get up and running, with downloadable installers
for Windows and OS X (install VirtualBox first), and it can be apt-get
installed on ubuntu. Vagrant starts with a base VM image (~300MB I think,
hosted on their servers), and lets you run a script or more elaborate

Luite,
Neat! That sounds perfect. If it can build/install the compiler, then
it's also ready to go for validation of patches.
I've never used vagrant myself but I'll give it a try. Is this the
absolute easiest thing for people to do? Or should I just put a (sadly
multi GB) virtual box image o
There has been some talk of some similar stuff in the IRC channel.
This would for example, be fantastic in combination with Vagrant[1], to
immediately provision a machine you can begin working with even on Windows.
Then you could have a GHC development environment up in minutes.
On a related note
We've been using Vagrant and puppet for building GHC HEAD with some patches
and GHCJS on 32 and 64 bit ubuntu. This way, rebuilding the whole VM from
