I've tried for the last few days to get ECE to install

I'm now stuck at the following point:

```
Checking Minimum required memory... PASSED

Hi @califrangis

It might be a permissions issue. Make sure that the user you're using to perform the installation belong to the `docker` group, has write permissions `/mnt/data/` and is a sudoer (the latter is required to install docker and xfs on the host).

Also could you also run the installation a again with a `--debug` flag and post the output here?

Thanks,  
Uri

I was able to get it to work using a different user id and the fixes you suggested.

now to get logstash running
