@rwaldron I also had this problem yesterday and quick fixed this like that:

1. change the line 103 of etc.js to something like exports.VM_NAME = 'T2';//'tessel2';
2. (sudo) npm install -g

#28

[rwaldron]

Ah! Thank you :)

I have fixed by changing the etc.js startvm() line like this:

diff --git a/etc.js b/etc.js
index ee087b5..c012605 100644

 function seekDevice (hostname, next) {

@johnnyman727 this change fixes the unhandled exception that I wrote before above. To see what exactly going, I chagned the line like this :

spawn('vboxheadless', ['-s', name, '--vrde', 'on'], { stdio: 'inherit' });

@kevinmehall Yes, both win and not win lines are same. I left the decision to maintainer to simplify those lines.

[johnnyman727]

@huseyinkozan ah great! Could you go ahead and remove the win check and then we'll merge. Also, please sign the Dojo Foundation CLA first. Thanks!

[huseyinkozan]

Signed the CLA and deleted the win check.

[johnnyman727]

Fantastic, thanks!
