Hey Chris - 

Are you typing the *config.vm.box = "precise32.box"* line into your command 
prompt? That's a line you need to put in the Vagrantfile that *vagrant init* 
generated for you. Open up the Vagrantfile with a text editor and make the 
appropriate changes there.

If you get stuck, post back here with what went wrong!
