How to make a Centos Workstation (VM/Real Machine)

Building the VM (Virtual Machine)

  • Inside VirtualBox server, add users to vboxgroup (/etc/group), run
    VirtualBox
    , register, create new virtual machine
    • Centos 5.3 Workstation
    • Linux, RH4 64-bit
    • 2 Processors
    • VM not private
    • 1.5GB RAM
    • Networking: NAT
    • New virtual disk
      • SCSI
      • 20 GB
      • Split into 2GB files
  • Boot with Centos 5.3 DVD iso as CD-ROM 1
  • Centos 5.3 installation

Software

  • pymol (Dirty hack). yum install pymol. As the one from sorbonne repository gives the python shared object in 32-bit, we need to rebuild it. This involves running, inside the pymol source, python setup.py build. Then, copying the libpymol.so built to /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pymol/_cmd.so.
