-If you don't feel comfortable installing linux on your machine yet, you can get started quickly with a virtual machine. You can download our [[http://​robosub.eecs.wsu.edu/​owncloud/​index.php/​s/​59dHbQnBK2jgO4O/​download|robosub virtualbox disk image here]]. It's a 2.7GB compressed download, after extracting with [[http://​www.7-zip.org/​|7zip]] it's around 11GB. This already has the robosub code repository downloaded and all dependencies installed, so you can skip some steps.
