* Create an Emulab experiment with a host that can run VirtualBox. The following NS file is sufficient:
[@
set ns [new Simulator]
source tb_compat.tcl
set one [$ns node]
tb-set-node-os $one UBUNTU10-64-STD
$ns run
@]
* Once the experiment is swapped in and the host is up, ssh to it and install VirtualBox and TightVNC
[@
# apt-get install vboxgtk tightvncserver
@]
* Create room for a local copy of our VirtualBox Windows 7 image. Find unallocated space on the local disk, create a new partition, and mount it.
[@
# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sd??
# mount /dev/sd?? /z/
@]
* Copy the VirtualBox Windows 7 image to this directory - this will be your copy.
[@
# gzip -dc /share/windows7/VMs/Win7-disk.vdi.gz > /z/win7-disk.vdi
@]
* Configure VNC. You may also want to install a window manager since it will use fvwm by default.
