I'm no hadoop person but if you require large swaths of storage you
are going to use I imagine that will be external to your development
environment. Is this true?

You can register a VM of your choice in devcloud from the UI. If
devcloud is unsuitable, tell us what is missing and we can see if it
can be tailored to fit your use case.

You can run all the management server code from your laptop as a
development environment and add an external hypervisor host (Either
Xen/KVM) to it. The guests, system VMs etc will then be deployed on
your host and not eat up any memory on your laptop. Management server
does require quite a bit of memory to run and having Hypervisor +
Management server + storage + kitchen sink will slow it down (unless
you just need devcloud).

Did mvn -Pdeveloper -Dsystevm clean install succeed for you?

Does your mysql instance have a root password? If so you'll have to
put that into db.properties.override file under utils/conf.

I see the wiki(s) are missing this info, so we'll need to edit that
with this step if it works for you. 

let us know.
