I am using AWS EC2 (ubuntu 12.04) to run some simulations in R. I have a scripts that boots up the instance and updates and upgrades and installs r-base r-base-dev
I would like to add a command to the startup (bash) script that would install the doMC package. My instance is brand new each time I run the machine (no R repos, no R library is defined) and I would like to be able to install the doMC package right after installing r-base.
Is this possible?
