You can run CORE from within this pre-built VMware virtual machine with minimal setup. See the included vcore.txt in the zipfile for login information. _Note that you may experience decreased performance and timer issues, and there is the added confusion of virtualization within virtualization. If you decide to run in this mode, we suggest using SSH with X11 forwarding into the VCORE virtual machine, to mitigate the decreased performance of the virtual display._ * *Build from source*
To build a CORE machine *from scratch*, including patching and compiling your own CORE kernel, see the [http://pf.itd.nrl.navy.mil/core/core-html/Installing-from-Source.html Installing from Source] page of the [http://pf.itd.nrl.navy.mil/core/core-html/ CORE manual]. \ No newline at end of file
