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 product, create new virtual machine
    • Centos 5.3 Workstation
    • Linux, Red Hat 64-bit
    • 1.5GB RAM
    • Boot hard disk (Primary master)
      • Create new hard disk
        • Dynamically expanding storage
        • Location: /data/virtualbox/Centos.vdi
        • Size: 20.0 GB
  • Further settings
  • Start VM
  • Press Enter at Centos installation screen


  • 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.
