initial version

The sage-5.2.ova is the full Sage-5.2 install. The notebook in that version has a bug and passwordless login doesn't work (which is why you are probably staring at a black screen when you run it). The somewhat arcane instructions should get you going. But since we want the virtual machine to be easy to use we are currently distributing the old version until that bug is fixed.

The notebook now asks for a admin password at the first boot. So to use this version of the VM, you need to

  1. import appliance and boot as usual,

  2. Simultaneously press Right-Ctrl F8

  3. Enter the admin password on the console running the notebook server

  4. Press Right-Ctrl F2 to get back to the browser showing the notebook.
