Installation of sshfs in the new VM # On Centos 6, the fuse-sshfs is not part of default YUM repos.
Get the ’epel’ repos # wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm Validate
$ ls -1 /etc/yum.repos.d/epel* /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel-testing.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo It if good idea to enable the remi by default
How to make screenshot from command line # platform-edc $ screencapture -i ~/Desktop/$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S).png libpng warning: zero length keyword libpng warning: Empty language field in iTXt chunk platform-edc $ screencapture ~/Desktop/A$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S).png libpng warning: zero length keyword libpng warning: Empty language field in iTXt chunk First one is “interactive” - Cmd-Shift-3 with selection tool, second is full screen
Case sensitivity and VirtualBox shared folder # Weird but true behaviour:
I have the case sensitive encrypted disk (sparse bundle with HFSX type) mounted in VBox shared folders. All works fine, after VM starts:
touch zz zZ creates two files, both “inside VM” ~/development/ATG/platform-edc as well as in OS-X.
If the VM is suspended and resumed, it looses the case sensitivity inside the VM.

Brief description of my latest setup I use for CPL and LCH - in case I forget it or somebody wants to replicate it.
Inspiration for the setup came from https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=cPt_1Vga-Nk
Motivation - issues with VMs # VMs are great - they allow “packaged” dev environment and quick start for the new member of the team. Start a VM on local or remote host, connect with VNC or Remote Desktop and you are in business.
