Draft Magento Installation Video

Mar
10

Tonight I created a really basic Magento installation video tutorial. I mainly did it to sort of test and hone my video creation skills, but I hope it helps a few people along the way. Sorry for the poor sound quality at times, and the umms, ahhs, and parts where I glance over things which may not be obvious. In the future I'd like to make more polished Drupal and Magento tutorial videos about more advanced topics.

So, without further ado:

JavaScript and Macromedia Flash Player required.

Video Notes

At one point in the video I refer to making changes to your hosts file. This is only relevant to those already running a webserver on their local computers. On Windows the file is located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. You can copy the line that says:

127.0.0.1 localhost

In my case I'm using:

127.0.0.1 m.3

Note that you still need to configure your webserver to accept this URL (say, create a virtual host in apache). I won't go into that here.
