Recommened stats for machine running:

• Recommended 8GB RAM, minimum of 4GB
• Fast CPU, as many cores as possible
• Preferably a fast network connection
• Large hard drive for logs if they are not outsourced

You just need to run install.sh and make Note that if you are not planning on using the web interface and not using a sqlite database, then you need to mark "use_sqlite" in the config file as "NO".
