Keeping the latest erlang but running riak's make devrel

Keeping the latest erlang but running riak's make devrel

I'm reading this tutorial:
http://docs.basho.com/riak/1.1.4/tutorials/fast-track/Building-a-Development-Environment/
I installed riak from the .deb package in ubuntu. If I run riak start it
will say "node is already running!" the second time I do it. I downloaded
the riak source. The tutorial wants me to do make devrel. It gives me a
long erlang error. if I try to compile riak from source it will complain I
have the latest version of erlang. I tried to alias
erl=/usr/lib/riak/erts-5.9.1/bin/erl to use the older version bundled with
riak but it still gives same error. I tried to remove the vsn requirements
from the rebar.config.
Is there a way to run multiple nodes using riak start after installing
riak from the .deb package? Is there a way to compile riak without
removing the latest version of erlang?
