By far the easiest way to get an instance of VistA running is to use the Astronaut installers by Astronaut, LLC. The installers provide a simple way to install VistA using rpm or deb files. First you need to download and install either a debian based (like Ubuntu or Debian) or rpm based (like Fedora or CentOS) version of GNU/Linux. Then download the version of VistA you like from sourceforge below.

Then follow the instructions for Installing an RPM or Installing a deb depending on which version you chose. It helps if you already understand a little about GNU/Linux to get this working. If this seems a little over your head, you can get help with GNU/Linux at your local Linux Users Group.
