Magento All Links Throws 404 Non Flora Error

After downloading in addition to installing magento 1.7.4 for evaluation, I flora out that past times default all the frontend links are non working. But the backend industrial plant fine.

As I recall long fourth dimension agone this is a work when deploying locally in addition to using a virtual address, example http://localhost/magento, because past times default magento rewrites to "/". So opened upwards up /.htaccess uncomment in addition to change:

//I installed magento inwards /var/www/magento RewriteBase / -> RewriteBase /magento 

And in addition to thence permit overrides inwards magento folder recursively, this tin last make past times editing the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default in addition to add together this lines earlier

<Directory /var/www/magento>   AllowOverride All </Directory>
