			== Getting and compiling the source ==

			First we need to clone the source:

			<pre>
			cd ~
			mkdir source
			cd source
			git clone https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk.git azerothcore
			</pre>

			== Compiling the source ==

			Now, the moment of truth. :)

			<pre>
			cd azerothcore
			mkdir build
			cd build
			cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/youruser/azeroth-server/ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/clang++ -DTOOLS=1 -DSCRIPTS=1
			make -j4
			make install
			<pre>

			On the make -j4 command, substitute the number 4 for how many cores you have or want to use.

			== Finishing up ==

			Start with number 4 on Azeroth's Installation Instructions. I may finish the entire thing, but for now this will do

This will be a HowTo on how to get AzerothCore compiled and running on Debian in a VirtualBox Setting. This should work on a Non-VM install as well. Other Debian variants like Ubuntu and LinuxMint will and should work as well. If you are running anything else, just use your best judgment on command usage.
