Run pbdR Packages on Virtual Machine

This section demonstrate how to install Oracle VM VirtualBox on a Windows machine, install pbdR image (1.7GB) to the VirtualBox, and run a quick test of pbdR. The pbdR image contains all installed pbdR packages and environments such as MPI, HDF5, and NetCDF libraries.

I assume all files are installed using default settings in most steps. Please click the following subsections:

  1. Install VirtualBox.

  2. Install pbdR Image.

  3. Start and Test pbdR inside VirtualBox.
