With VMware the trick is to get the file http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/novoselt/K3vertices into the virtual machine's file space. Then you'll have to do sage: L = lattice_polytope.read_all_polytopes("/exact/path/to/K3vertices", "K3 %4d") When I get to my office later today, I'll send you an email with commands to do what I suggest above for the SAGE vmware.
