μSDN VM Install

Prerequisites

• Install a virtualization platform such as VirtualBox
• Install Vagrant from www.vagrantup.com/downloads
• Make sure git is installed (e.g. sudo apt install git in Linux or git bash in Windows)

Installation

Open a terminal and get the uSDN-NG repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/mbaddeley/usdn-ng.git

Initialize Vagrant image:

$ cd usdn-ng/tools/vagrant
$ vagrant up

Usage

After the initialization finished, the VM will automatically shutdown. Please restart it again manually using vagrant up.

The first time you open the VM, you need to login using the username 'vagrant' and password 'vagrant'. And if there is a pop-up to ask you to do the release upgrade, DO NOT do that! The script haven't test on a higher ubuntu version.

You should now see the VM's desktop environment. You can start Cooja by opening a terminal and typing the following:

$ contiker

If this is the first time opening docker, it will need to pull the image from their server. This may take a few minutes. Once it's finished you should now see Cooja up and running!

Remember, you should always use the vagrant up to open the VM; open it in the VirtualBox will fail to load the sync folder.
