I had my doubts regarding that, thanks.

Since this is the system I am stuck with, could you please guide me to a tutorial that could help me out in installing the Mininet 2.0 version on my Ubuntu 12.04.


The manual setup is described in the following page:

  * http://mininet.org/download/

and, in particular, in the the sections:

 * Option 2 (on Ubuntu 11.10 and later): Native Installation from Source
 * Option 3 (on Ubuntu 12.04 and later): Native Installation from Packages

        Hello,

        I am a Masters student at NU-FAST, Karachi, Pakistan.

        I have been trying to run the OpenFlow Tutorial for Mininet
        2.0 for over a week now. I am stuck on the startup, and have
        googled around but have not been able to find a solution.

        The tutorial never discusses any what-if issue, so when I
        configure the virtual box, load the proper image, configure
        the host-only adaptor, the tutorial just mentions that start
        and enter username and password.

        Now, I have run this on Windows 7 and Windows XP platforms,
        all requirements fullfilled, and on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, all
        requirements fullfilled. I start the VM, and it gives four
        options, so I select the top-most, being Ubuntu. After this
        the VM just gives a cursor, and thats it. I have waitied for
        it to ask for a username/password for hours, but to no avail.

        So I am stuck at this stage, and nothing can be done further
        from my side without your assistance.

        My system configuration is an Intel Centrino, 1.5 GHz, 1 Gb
        RAM, and more than 20 GB of free HD space. I have tried the
        same on my Intel Atom system with the same processing power
        and specifications.


    Ali,

    It seems that you have a couple of major problems:

     1) The processors you listed may not provide hardware support for
         virtualization.  To check the CPU capabilities see:
    
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/linux-tip-how-to-tell-if-your-processor-supports-vt/

     2) You can't run a 64-bit VM (Mininet 2.0) on 32-bit Hardware/OS.
         See:
    https://github.com/mininet/mininet/wiki/FAQ#wiki-virtualbox-error

    I believe you best choice it to install Mininet 2.0 natively on a
    Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit
    edition.

    Regards,
    jpo
