The development of this Quickstart Drupal project appears to be in transition to a new owner and I would like to thank the creator for their efforts and the new owner for taking it on.

Here's my contibution to the ongoing effort

Getting a LAMP stack running on a Vagrant VM (under windows 7 host), full instructions / End-to-end setup of LAMP VM on Windows 64 bit host using Vagrant and Oracle VirtualBox

http://stackoverflow.com/a/15067918/227926

These are instructions that I wrote andwill get you a 32 bit Ubuntu Linux OS with a LAMP (Linux Apache web server, MySQL database, PHP )stack running as a Virtual Machine using Oracle Virtual Box on your Windows 7 64 bit machine. I have tested PHP OK (via standard phpinfo.php file and see that MySQL is running by haven't tested this yet).

I hope this is useful in contributing to the Drupal QuickStart project.

See also http://drupal.org/project/vagrant for actively developed setup for running Drupal in a virtual machine in a host machine. Be sure to run http://drupal.vbox.local/install.php to install the Drupal setup after following the steps.

This setup worked for me. The setup includes a lot of useful tools: phpmyadmin, git etc.
