| 55 | * If you have a mac running 10.10, geni-lib won't work. Instead boot up a VM on your local machine and install geni-lib there. |
| 56 | * We find the combination of [https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox] and [http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads vagrant] is really easy to use: |
| 57 | 1. Install [https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox] |
| 58 | 1. Install [http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads vagrant] |
| 59 | 1. Follow the [https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/index.html getting started] instructions for vagrant: |
| 60 | {{{ |
| 61 | $ vagrant init hashicorp/precise32 # an Ubuntu 12.04 LR 32-bit image |
| 62 | $ vagrant up # load the virtual machine |
| 63 | $ vagrant ssh # login to your VM |
| 64 | # install geni-lib, etc |
| 65 | $ vagrant destroy # to delete your VM |
