Lab Setup: Environment and Tools Installation

For the lab setup, you do not need to submit anything. However, we strongly urge you to get the environment set up as soon as possible, and start getting familiar with the environment. For those who are not familiar with Minix or Linux operating systems, you need to spend extra time. All of our labs will be depending on this environment.
