If you have a mac and are unsure on how... (not sure why any mac-owner wouldn't be comfortable with the terminal window but,)
Instructions to use xdissent's ievms script from github:
1) Install virtual box - http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads - Go with the "VirtualBox 4.1.2 for OS X hosts x86/amd64" option.
2) Copy the command that is most relevant from you from here: https://github.com/xdissent/ievms/blob/master/README.rst https://github.com/xdissent/ievms/blob/master/README.rst (starting with 'curl')
3) Open up your terminal window paste, hit the 'enter' key
4) Hit the town, it can take some time, depending on your connection speed that is.
- ConceitedCode 15y agoDoes this work for linux users, specifically ubuntu?
- jackreichert 15y agoHaven't tried that. Looks like it would.
- tagawa 15y agoYes. I couldn't get the IE6 disk to work but IE8/Windows 7 works nicely. Note that you shouldn't need cabextract but you may have to install p7zip-rar to extract the exe/rar files.
