    v1 v2  
    33As of Fall '15, 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.

     5We find the combination of [https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox] and [http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads vagrant] is really easy to use:
     6     1. Install [https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads VirtualBox]
     7     1. Install [http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads vagrant]
     8     1. Follow the [https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/index.html getting started] instructions for vagrant:
     9{{{
     10mac> mkdir genilib # make a directory for genilib
     11mac> wget http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/exp/vagrant/genilib/Vagrantfile  # an Ubuntu 12.04 LR 32-bit image
     12}}}
     13     1. Download the `omni.bundle` using the browser on your mac, but then copy the `omni.bundle` file from the `Downloads` directory to the same directory as your Vagrantfile.
     14{{{
     15mac> cp ~/Downloads/omni.bundle . # copy your omni.bundle to this directory
     16mac> vagrant up # create an 12.04 LR 32-bit Ubuntu virtual machine with geni-lib installed
     17mac> vagrant ssh # login to your VM
     18}}}
     19     1. Then when you configure geni-lib, run the following command inside your VM instead of the listed instructions:
     20{{{
     21ubuntu> context-from-bundle --bundle /vagrant/omni.bundle
     22}}}
     23     1. You should now be able to [http://geni-lib.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorials/portalcontext.html#test-it-out test your setup] following the usual steps.
     24     1. When you are done
     25{{{
     26ubuntu> exit
     27mac> vagrant halt # to shutdown your VM (vagrant destroy will completely delete the VM causing you to lose all your work)
     28}}}
