• how to install combinat

    From meInvent bbird@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 20 17:59:07 2016
    another virtual machine succeeded to install
    but this new virtual machine which installed spark can not install even if using root account
    and odd thing is that i add cabal path to it,
    it still can not call the new cabal version
    then i directly install with new cabal but failed too
