Comment(by hamish):

 Hi,

 actually the problem was in install_mysql.sh. The seeding of the admin pw
 was failing because the server's package name changed with this version of
 ubuntu and the value in /var/cache/debconf/password.txt was empty. So when
 install_ushahidi.sh tried to automatically set up the db it would fail, as
 seen in Alex's build log.

 hopefully fixed by r6960.

 ps- re. the new quickstart hint: are the instructions valid as there is no
 root password? (you need to do `sudo su` to get there)
