1. Download MissionLab FC4 VMWare image from Georgia Tech at http://www.cc.gatech.edu/ai/robot-lab/research/MissionLab/
2. Download VMWare Player from http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/desktop_downloads/vmware_player/3_0?oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=vmware%20player
3. The VMWare Player file is a .bundle. Mark it as an executable (chmod +x), and execute as root. This will launch a graphical install window.
4. Once VMWare Player is installed, load the VM image, and login (mast / masttastic)
5. Configure the network (you will have to re-probe for the mac address) and download Mission Lab.
6. Compile Mission Lab (I said no to all the prompted questions--it failed when I said yes)
7. I changed the login information from mast/masttastic to mast/[our bot account password]
8. the mission lab binaries should already be in your path. (mlab, cfgedit are the two main ones). Try them out to see that they work
