<div dir="ltr"><div>Mike -<br><br>When I was starting out, I ran devstack ( <a href="http://devstack.org/">http://devstack.org/</a> ) on an Ubuntu VM. You wind up with a system where you've got a basic running OpenStack so you can try things out with the command-line utilities, and also do development because it checks out all the repos. I learned a lot, and it's how I still do development.<br>
