Debian Jessie

Debian Jessie installation Notes:

  • Add

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1"

    to /etc/default/grub. Then update with

    1.  sudo update-grub
    2.  sudo update-grub2
    3.  sudo reboot

  • Add the backports which contain Systemd 2.30 and update Systemd.

    apt-get -t jessie-backports install systemd

    (Necessary because the default Systemd version (2.15) does not support the “Delegate” directive in service files)

  • Add the Ansible repository and install Ansible to get a proper version

    1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ansible/ansible
    2. sudo apt-get update
    3. sudo apt-get install ansible

  • Install Jinja2 and Python-Netaddr

    sudo apt-get install python-jinja2=2.8-1~bpo8+1 python-netaddr
