Beware that the first time you install Symfony2, it may take a few minutes to
download all its components. At the end of the installation process, the
installer will ask you to provide some configuration options for the Symfony2
project. For this first project you can safely ignore this configuration by
pressing the ``<Enter>`` key repeatedly.
installer will ask you four questions:

1. **Would you like to use Symfony 3 directory structure? [y/N]** The upcoming
Symfony 3 version will modify the default directory structure for Symfony
applications. If you want to test drive this new structure, type ``y``.
In order to follow this tutorial, press the ``<Enter>`` key to accept the
default ``N`` value and to keep using the default Symfony2 structure.
2. **Would you like to install Acme demo bundle? [y/N]** Symfony versions prior
to 2.5 included a demo application to test drive some features of the
framework. However, as this demo application is only useful for newcomers,
installing it is now optional. In order to follow this tutorial, type the
``y`` key to install the demo application.
3. **Some parameters are missing. Please provide them.** Symfony2 asks you for
the value of all the configuration parameters. For this first project,
you can safely ignore this configuration by pressing the ``<Enter>`` key
repeatedly.
4. **Do you want to remove the existing VCS (.git, .svn..) history? [Y,n]?**
The development history of large projects such as Symfony can take a lot of
disk space. Press the ``<Enter>`` key to safely remove all this history data.
