Hi, thanks for your info!
Even it was a good start i faced this problem in the second command:
root@cp:/home/admin# sudo apt-get -y install vesta
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?

can you give me a hint?
