To facilitate your work with ACS during the workshop we provided a CentOS Stream 8 virtual machine with ACS (version 2022APR) already installed and configured. To use it follow these instructions:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
sudo apt install virtualbox-ext-pack
For more details click here, or you can also reach to any of us for help.
Open virtualbox. Click the "Tools" menu and then click import.
Select the VM you downloaded and click "Next".
If you want you can change the VM's name, then click "Import".
Wait a couple minutes until the import process is completed.
Now you should have the VM loaded. Select it and click on "Start".
After the VM's OS has booted, login into CentOS Stream 8 with acs2022 as password.
Check your environment. As you can see at the end of ~/.bashrc
Select the VM and click on "Settings".
In the settings menu, select "Network". Check the property "Attached to" is set to "NAT".
Open Firefox and check if the VM have access to the internet. Notice we already bookmarked some useful links for you.
You can see at the end of ~/.bashrc we already set the INTROOT environment variable and also provided an alias for the ACS source step.
You can check which version of ACS is installed:
Or you can just start ACS to check everything is working ok:
Now you should have a fully functional ACS development environment. If you run into any problems while trying to set up ACS VM please tell us and we'll be glad to help you.
