2.Once it's finished downloading, make sure you have Vmware Workstation installed on your computer. If you don't have it, you can download it through Dreamspark

3.Unzip the vmware Image, and open the (.vmx) file, that will give you a clean image of Ubuntu 10.04
The user name for the operating system is: notroot
the password is: thoughtpolice

4. Once you've logged in, go on sudo mode by typing:
sudo su
