1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,211 [MUSIC] This video is to help you set up a Virtual Machine environment on your own 2 00:00:02,211 --> 00:00:04,300 computer. so that we can have a common environment 3 00:00:04,300 --> 00:00:12,120 for every student in the class to use. If you go to our course webpage on the 4 00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:23,726 Coursera website you'll find a. In our nav-, left navigation bar the, 5 00:00:23,726 --> 00:00:27,272 the, the heading Virtual Machine Installation. 6 00:00:27,272 --> 00:00:31,432 Click on that and you'll get a detailed set of instructions on how to install a 7 00:00:31,432 --> 00:00:35,073 Virtual Machine. That will give us all a common 8 00:00:35,073 --> 00:00:40,040 programming environment in which to do the assignments in the course. 9 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:46,542 The important things to do first are to download a Virtual Machine player. 10 00:00:46,542 --> 00:00:50,370 Now, we're going to be doing this for the Windows environment so we're going to be 11 00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:55,435 loading a free VMware player. for those of you running Macs or Linux, 12 00:00:55,435 --> 00:00:59,870 you might want to try out Virtual Box to do that. 13 00:00:59,870 --> 00:01:04,090 We won't be supporting anything other than the Windows environment. 14 00:01:04,090 --> 00:01:10,006 But you can find a similar set of instructions will work on, for Virtual 15 00:01:10,006 --> 00:01:14,798 Box as well. So if we click on the VM Player, we'll go 16 00:01:14,798 --> 00:01:19,714 to the VM Ware website, where you'll find a Download button. 17 00:01:19,714 --> 00:01:26,350 to click on and see a whole set of possible VMware players to use. 18 00:01:26,350 --> 00:01:30,552 We're going to choose the Windows 32-bit and 64-bit player. 19 00:01:30,552 --> 00:01:35,876 And click on that Download. That will let us save an exe file on our 20 00:01:35,876 --> 00:01:39,505 machine. [SOUND] After the file is done 21 00:01:39,505 --> 00:01:43,674 downloading, you'll see this icon on your desktop. 22 00:01:43,674 --> 00:01:51,192 Just double-click on that and run the installer for the VMware. 23 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,927 Once that's completed, you'll find the following icon on your desktop for the VM 24 00:02:11,927 --> 00:02:15,707 player. But before we do anything else, let's go 25 00:02:15,707 --> 00:02:22,752 back to our instructions. And, and look at the next thing we need 26 00:02:22,752 --> 00:02:26,506 to do. As we go further down, you'll see 27 00:02:26,506 --> 00:02:31,243 download instructions for the actual Virtual Machine image we'll be using. 28 00:02:32,500 --> 00:02:37,650 That is available here under the Linux VM installation and Setup. 29 00:02:37,650 --> 00:02:41,460 We'll be using a Linux Virtual Machine. This is a very large file. 30 00:02:41,460 --> 00:02:46,644 It's about 1.3 gigabytes, so we recommend that you allocate enough time to get this 31 00:02:46,644 --> 00:02:51,165 downloaded. the file is also compressed, so you'll 32 00:02:51,165 --> 00:02:56,558 need the compression utility called 7zip. So if you don't have that on your 33 00:02:56,558 --> 00:03:01,058 machine, you'll find a link here to go find 7zip and install it. 34 00:03:01,058 --> 00:03:08,878 again, I'm going to install the 64 bit Windows version and put that on my 35 00:03:08,878 --> 00:03:12,878 machine as well. 36 00:03:12,878 --> 00:03:16,326 [NOISE]. 37 00:03:16,326 --> 00:03:20,862 For those of you who are not on Windows, further down on this page you'll find 38 00:03:20,862 --> 00:03:25,984 instructions for Mac OS and Linux versions of 7zip. 39 00:03:25,984 --> 00:03:31,617 Okay, the next thing then we'll need is the actual Virtual Machine file itself. 40 00:03:31,617 --> 00:03:36,441 you can download that here by fetching the Virtual Machine image directly from 41 00:03:36,441 --> 00:03:41,864 the Coursera server. Or you can set up a bit torrent to help 42 00:03:41,864 --> 00:03:46,604 you download the file. We'll leave that to you to figure out. 43 00:03:46,604 --> 00:03:50,314 All the instructions are here. I am just going to download the Virtual 44 00:03:50,314 --> 00:03:54,773 Machine image directly. And you'll notice it's a file called 45 00:03:54,773 --> 00:03:57,520 VM.7z. And place that on my desktop as well. 46 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,485 So, after the file has downloaded, and that could take a while, you'll find two 47 00:04:01,485 --> 00:04:11,160 more icons on your desktop. One is the Virtual Machine. 48 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:15,960 File itself zipped, and the other is the 7zip installer. 49 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,584 So let's get the 7zip utility installed first. 50 00:04:20,584 --> 00:04:27,530 just do the basic recommended installation. 51 00:04:27,530 --> 00:04:32,770 That shouldn't take very long. And then we can, right-click on the 52 00:04:32,770 --> 00:04:40,770 Virtual Machine file. And ask, 7zip to extract it here. 53 00:04:40,770 --> 00:04:48,373 So what it will now do is extract the file into a folder, in this directory. 54 00:04:51,140 --> 00:04:54,853 Okay, when that's completed, you'll have a folder called VM. 55 00:04:54,853 --> 00:04:59,008 And if you double-click on that, you'll see a set of files in that. 56 00:04:59,008 --> 00:05:02,282 let's not worry about that just quite yet. 57 00:05:02,282 --> 00:05:07,780 we'll we'll be using the VMware player to play one of those files. 58 00:05:07,780 --> 00:05:12,430 And set up our environment for us. So if we click on VMWare, we can open a 59 00:05:12,430 --> 00:05:17,168 Virtual Machine. And what we'll do is naivgate to that 60 00:05:17,168 --> 00:05:21,986 file. And you'll notice, there's only one file 61 00:05:21,986 --> 00:05:28,470 that we can actually open. called Fedora 64-bit. 62 00:05:28,470 --> 00:05:35,216 We'll open that. And then click Play our Virtual Machine. 63 00:05:35,216 --> 00:05:40,392 Just click I copied it to get things started. 64 00:05:40,392 --> 00:05:46,830 And just remind me later or okay to the various things that will ask. 65 00:05:46,830 --> 00:05:54,374 And you'll now see it install. The actual Virtaul Machine that we'll be 66 00:05:54,374 --> 00:06:02,262 using. OK, once that decompression is completed 67 00:06:02,262 --> 00:06:10,190 we'll have a VM folder. That contains our Virtual Machine image. 68 00:06:10,190 --> 00:06:15,536 We're going to execute, that Virtual Machine by using the VM Ware player. 69 00:06:15,536 --> 00:06:27,570 So double-click on the VM Ware icon. And open a new Virtual Machine. 70 00:06:27,570 --> 00:06:31,990 On that folder, navigating to it if necessary. 71 00:06:31,990 --> 00:06:36,836 And then selecting that, Virtual Machine, and playing it. 72 00:06:36,836 --> 00:06:45,530 Just click I copied if that pops up. And remind me later if, necessary. 73 00:06:45,530 --> 00:06:49,230 And you'll see it go through a sequence of installation. 74 00:06:49,230 --> 00:06:55,660 Operations for that Virtual Machine. This may take a few seconds. 75 00:07:17,050 --> 00:07:20,354 Okay, when it's completed the installation, we'll see a window on, 76 00:07:20,354 --> 00:07:25,624 through our Virtual Machine, and a log in for our default users, happy user. 77 00:07:25,624 --> 00:07:32,356 If we click on that, we'll see that it brings up a screen with a few icons on on 78 00:07:32,356 --> 00:07:39,646 the top of the screen. And a few icons in the menu bar up at the 79 00:07:39,646 --> 00:07:43,353 top. One of the first things you'll want to do 80 00:07:43,353 --> 00:07:46,880 is click on the Eexclamation point, either here or here. 81 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,708 And this is a little script that we've included that updates all the course 82 00:07:51,708 --> 00:07:55,328 materials. So, what I've just done is updated the 83 00:07:55,328 --> 00:07:59,080 course materials so that I can get started on the first homework assignment, 84 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,792 the first laboratory assignment, Lab zero. 85 00:08:02,792 --> 00:08:08,723 Okay. The next thing I'll want to do is open up 86 00:08:08,723 --> 00:08:18,570 a terminal window using the icon here in the Applications menu, and type Setup-VM. 87 00:08:18,570 --> 00:08:27,012 That will now let me set a new password for my Virtual machine. 88 00:08:27,012 --> 00:08:38,930 oops, thats a mistype. And then a new password for my user. 89 00:08:38,930 --> 00:08:44,903 Okay so now setup is complete and I can get started using my Virtual Machine. 90 00:08:46,570 --> 00:08:51,818 There are a few more things left to do at this point and we're going to go back to 91 00:08:51,818 --> 00:08:56,760 our instructions. And you'll notice that as we've just 92 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,106 completed part A. And I've shown you how to do that the 93 00:09:00,106 --> 00:09:04,966 next thing to do is to set up part B. And I'll leave that up to you to follow 94 00:09:04,966 --> 00:09:09,986 these instructions carefully. you'll notice there's a bunch of commands 95 00:09:09,986 --> 00:09:14,230 you'll have to give to the prompt in the Terminal window. 96 00:09:14,230 --> 00:09:19,544 And this will finally set up everything so that it's ready for us to use. 97 00:09:19,544 --> 00:09:25,634 the next video will look at how we get started on Lab zero.
