Have a working admin environment. Fast.
Originally a straightforward Chef port of andis' puppet-admin-essentials.
None so far. Yes, I know. I suck.
If you still want to give admin-essentials a spin, just install chef-solo and use the standalone deploy script:
sudo apt-get install curl git-core lsb-release
bash < <( curl -sL https://raw.github.com/sometimesfood/chef-admin-essentials/master/contrib/install-chef.sh )
bash < <( curl -sL https://raw.github.com/sometimesfood/chef-admin-essentials/master/contrib/standalone-deploy.sh )
