Note that if the import fails with error ''Seeking within the archive failed (VERR_TAR_UNEXPECTED_EOS)'', this can be a bug of some versions of virtualbox. A solution is then to manually extract the files of the .ova (which is actually a tar) with the following command: ''$ tar xf debian-jessie-cortexlab.ova''. It should then be possible to import the extracted ovf without error.
  
-From there you can start the VM. You can connect to accounts cxlbusr or root, without any password. You can also connect to the VM with ssh. The network address to connect to depends on the operating system (use your OS interface managing commands or gui to get the IP address). On Linux, it will most likely be 192.168.56.101, so once the VM is started you should be able to ''$ ssh cxlbusr@192.168.56.101'' or ''ssh root@192.168.56.101'' (change the IP address accordingly, if it's different on your laptop).+From there you can start the VM.

-===== Division of resources ===== 
  
-Since we're all going to be using FIT/CorteXlab at the same time, a division of the resources is necessary. This will allow all groups to access the testbed without any conflicts.+---- 
  
-First of all, all tutorial attendees will arrange themselves in groups of two. For each group, a list of resources is given at the beginning of each tutorial. If you're unsure of what resources to use, or if you weren't able to find a group, please refer to the tutorial personnel.
