Really(tm) attached now. Just noticed a silly typo here - in 'Installing LilyDev in VirtualBox" step 11 /keybord/keyboard/ Hope it's not too late, but doesn't really matter. I was hoping to get my amendments to NR and LM organised, but haven't been able to as I've been having problems with VirualBox and am very busy now. Best regards, Peter

Good idea.. But until I can get an answer to the mail I posted on this list on 18th I can't do anything at all :( > James Peter
Re: Is the CG out of date?
Hi Michael I'll check the other two PRs tomorrow. I don't think I'll have time for a new release this week.

I do not know, however, if Federico will make a new release soon. Michael To make it clear, I thought I'd better wait with publishing the patch until a release reflecting these changes exists. So that the instructions can be tested. Or should I post it for review, nevertheless?

Re: Is the CG out of date?
Dear Federico, Thanks. The GitHub file has the changed file name (which I'd worked out), but links to the CG documentation which says to install it as Fedora rather than Debian. I'm a Linux newbie, and don't know if it will make any difference. Any hints are welcome.

I'm trying to work out how to run LilyDev in VirtualBox on a Windows system., but the information in section 2.1 of the CG seems to be inaccurate, and I suspect it's a bit out of date. Under "Installing LilyDev in VirtualBox" the filename is given as lilydev-vm-fedora-VERSION.raw but the downloaded version form the website was LilyDev-1-debian-vm.zip I assume that this is correct, but in that case should I install it as Debian rather than Fedora?
