Hello everyone,
The PostgreSQL community gave our project amazing feedback when we first
announced TurnKey PostgreSQL appliance a few months back. This was a
huge encouragement for us to push forward with our development efforts.
Since then we've been busy busy beavers and have just released a ne

Greg has a good point. Ubuntu is a bit of a moving target. In contrast,
Debian has a much slower release cycle than Ubuntu and is thus
considered by many people to be preferable for production server
applications.
This is one of the reasons we plan on releasing appliances that are

Hi Mike,
Using virtual machine software such as VirtualBox (which is free),
Microsoft Virtual PC (which is also free for use) and VMware you can

should be easy enough to add post-installation:
apt-get install postgis postgresql-8.3-postgis
Since the packages are quite small, we'll add them by default when we
release the next version of the applianc

Thanks, though you don't necessarily have to wait for a "big machine" if
you just want to give the appliance a go. A little machine or even a
virtual machine should do.
