This is on a freshly installed Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon). Modify version numbers as needed

1. install g++
   sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential xinetd
2. download plone unified installer or in your terminal type:
   wget https://launchpad.net/plone/3.0/3.0.4/+download/Plone-3.0.4-UnifiedInstaller.tar.gz --no-check-certificate
3. tar -xvzf Plone-3.0.4-Unifiedinstaller-Rev3.tar.gz
cd Plone-3.0.4-Unifiedinstaller
   If you need to change the install path for Plone, edit the PLONE_HOME variable in install.sh. I changed mine to /usr/local/Plone304
4. sudo ./install.sh zeo
5. cd /usr/local/Plone304/zeocluster
   and
   sudo vi adminPassword.txt
   to view admin password
6. start Plone (first time will take a few minutes):
   sudo /usr/local/Plone304/zeocluster/bin/startcluster.sh
7. navigate to localhost:8080 to check that zope is working
8. in localhost:8080/manage go to Root Folder, click on acl_users=>users=>admin and change admin password to something you’ll remember
9. from dropdown menu select Plone Site to create a new site
10. navigate to plone site: localhost:8080/ploneSiteName
