1. Make sure you have ALL the dependancies - not just python 2. Print out the quick guide and the user guide 3. Read the guides 4. Follow the guides
5. PAUSE 6. Make sure you can use the command line commands to locate everything (locations are in the guides) 7. Make sure you can use a TEXT editor such as nano to edit the conf files if needed - search the web for instructions 8. PAUSE 9. Try and get the simulator running (as Liz suggested). If you are not going to be using the generated html pages then you will need a 'test' WU account to avoid messing up your real one - which I assume is still being updated by cumulus and the vp2. PAUSE 10. Make sure all looks good PAUSE 11. Find the section of the guides related to changing drivers - and change the simulator to the vp2 - as described in the user/customisation guide ABOVE ALL - DO NOT GUESS - LOOK IN THE DOCUMENTATION and READ and READ again the documentation so that you at least are aware of the contents and what is inside the manuals. They are very very good and just about all you need to know is in one of the manuals/guides. WALK WALK WALK WALK and take your time - especially if you are not 'comfortable' with Linux, the RPi and weewx.
