-=====
+Installation
+============
+Depending on what type of usage you are going to have with ``ceph-deploy`` you
+might want to look into the different ways to install it. For automation, you
+might want to ``bootstrap`` directly. Regular users of ``ceph-deploy`` would
+probably install from the OS packages or from the Python Package Index.
+Python Package Index
+--------------------
+If you are familiar with Python install tools (like ``pip`` and
+``easy_install``) you can easily install ``ceph-deploy`` like::
+
+ pip install ceph-deploy
+
+or::
+
+ easy_install ceph-deploy
+
+
+It should grab all the dependencies for you and install into the current user's
+environment.
+
+We highly recommend using ``virtualenv`` and installing dependencies in
+a contained way.
