-# Alternative Install Options
-
-Here lie some alternative installation options for Discourse. They're not the
-recommended way of doing things, hence they're a bit out of the way.
-
-Oh, and dragons. Lots of dragons.
-
-## Web Server Alternative: apache2
-
-If you instead want to use apache2 to serve the static pages:
-
-    # Run these commands as your normal login (e.g. "michael")
-    # If you don't have apache2 yet
-    sudo apt-get install apache2
-
-    # Edit your site details in a new apache2 config file
-    sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/your-domain.com
-
-    # Put these info inside and change accordingly
-
-    <VirtualHost *:80>
-      ServerName your-domain.com
-      ServerAlias www.your-domain.com
-
-      DocumentRoot /srv/www/apps/discourse/public
-
-      <Directory /srv/www/apps/discourse/public>
-        AllowOverride all
-        Options -MultiViews
-      </Directory>
-
-      # Custom log file locations
-      ErrorLog  /srv/www/apps/discourse/log/error.log
-      CustomLog /srv/www/apps/discourse/access.log combined
-    </VirtualHost>
-
-    # Install the Passenger Phusion gem and run the install
-    gem install passenger
-    passenger-install-apache2-module
-
-    # Next, we "create" a new apache2 module, passenger
-    sudo vim /etc/apache2/mods-available/passenger.load
-
-    # Inside paste (change the user accodingly)
-    LoadModule passenger_module /home/YOUR-USER/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0/gems/passenger-4.0.2/libout/apache2/mod_passenger.so
-
-    # Now the passenger module configuration
-    sudo vim /etc/apache2/mods-available/passenger.conf
-
-    # Inside, paste (change the user accodingly)
-    PassengerRoot /home/YOUR-USER/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0/gems/passenger-4.0.2
-    PassengerDefaultRuby /home/YOUR-USER/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-2.0.0-p0/ruby
-
-    # Now activate them all
-
-    sudo a2ensite your-domain.com
-    sudo a2enmod passenger
-    sudo service apache2 reload
-    sudo service apache2 restart
-
-If you get any errors starting or reloading apache, please check the paths above - Ruby 2.0 should be there if you are using RVM, but it could get tricky.
-
-## RVM Alternative: Systemwide installation
-
-Taken from http://rvm.io/, the commands below installs RVM and users in the 'rvm' group have access to modify state:
-
-    # Run these commands as your normal login (e.g. "michael") \curl -s -S -L https://get.rvm.io | sudo bash -s stable
-    sudo adduser $USER rvm
-    newgrp rvm
-    . /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh
-    rvm requirements
-
-    # Build and install ruby
-    rvm install 2.0.0
-    gem install bundler
-
-When creating the `discourse` user, add him/her/it to the RVM group:
-
-    # Run these commands as your normal login (e.g. "michael")
-    sudo adduser discourse rvm
-
-RVM will be located in `/usr/local/rvm` directory instead of `/home/discourse/.rvm`, so update the crontab line respectively.
