I'm just trying to create a revised 'prereq' script, which I updated
recently. One of the things I notice in there is these few lines.
echo "Unfortunately, building SAGE on Cygwin is not currently
supported,"
echo "though we are actively working on supporting it. If you
would like"
echo "to help with the porting effort, please post to"
echo ""
echo " http://groups.google.com/group/sage-windows";
echo ""
echo "Also, see http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6743";
echo "In the meantime, to run Sage on Windows, please use"
echo "a virtualization solution instead, such as VMware."
echo "To get past this message, export the variable 'SAGE_PORT' to"
echo "something non-empty."
exit 1
1) Should this still say only VMware, or should it say VirtualBox, or
mention both?
2) Should it offer any preference, or otherwise help a user chose what
one of the two to use?
3) Should it mention anything about live CD's, or VMware images?
Just let me know what is best, and I'll make any changes necessary.
