Hi Nio,
I downloaded the .vdi.xz file, ran md5sum with success, but using xzcat or xz on the .vdi.xz file I'm getting "File format not recognised". Any ideas? Cheers, JackT. ________________________________ From: Torios <torios-bounces+jackdtrice=outlook....@lists.launchpad.net> on behalf of Nio Wiklund <nio.wikl...@gmail.com> Sent: 23 November 2016 20:46 To: Israel; Jack Trice; Ali M Jjawad; ToriOS developers; Phill.

You find them and their md5sums at http://phillw.net/isos/linux-tools/torios/01_Test_Tarballs/ dd_ToriOS-Trusty-Test-01_7.8GB.img.xz # install with mkusb ToriTrustyTest01_by-OBI-in-Trusty.tar.xz # tarball for 'my' OBI ToriTrustyTest01_by-ToriOS-debian.tar.xz # tarball for ToriOS 1.0 dd_ToriOS-Trusty-Test-01_7.8GB.vdi.xz # disk for VirtualBox Three of the files can be used as they are by mkusb and the two OBI versions. The vdi.xz file must be expanded before it is used with VirtualBox, xzcat dd_ToriOS-Trusty-Test-01_7.8GB.vdi.xz > dd_ToriOS-Trusty-Test-01_7.8GB.vdi Connect the vdi file to a virtual machine and boot ToriOS. You should be able to update & upgrade it with Israel's new versions in order to test them. I had very low resolution in VirtualBox, only 640x480, until I set GRUB_TERMINAL=console and ran sudo update-grub. See the attached screenshot. After reboot the resolution increased to 1024x768. (I did not install any guest additions.) Happy testing :-) Nio
