 ====== VM info ====== ====== VM info ======
-The latest available version of the VM is 0.6 and is created from scratch (i.e not updated from 0.5). +The [[https://github.com/bitcraze/bitcraze-vm|GitHub repository for the Bitcraze VM]] contains information on how the machine is set up and what comes pre-installed.
-<code> +
-OS  : Xubuntu 14.10 +
-HDD : ~29 GB (dynamically sized) +
-RAM : 1 GB +

-===== Configuration ===== +
-The VM comes pre-configured with the following: +
-  * udev rules for Crazyradio, Crazyradio bootloader and Crazyflie 2.0 +
-  * Pre-configured USB filters for passing Crazyradio, the NRF BOOT and the Crazyflie 2.0 to the VM (not enabled by default) +
- +
-**NOTE**: The USB filters in the 0.3 version of the VM specify a serial number for the radio dongle.  This means the pre-configured filter cannot be used as is.  Create your own filter by plugging in the radio and then choosing "Add Filter", the dongle should appear in the provided list. You can also edit and remove the serial number from the Filter which will make it work for all Crazyradio dongles. +
