[cip-dev] Procedure to use B@D in Windows 10

[cip-dev] Procedure to use B@D in Windows 10

[Robert Marshall]

The 0.9.1 release box of B at D has been successfully imported into Windows
10 and both a QEMU and BBB health check have been run on that virtual machine.
This setup also works when provisioning a box from a clone of the git repository.

The steps to get B at D running on Windows 10 are as follows:

- Install the guest additions `vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest`
- Install rsync/ssh/git in cygwin.
- core.autocrlf=input is needed in the git settings for the scripts to
    run under the Debian of the virtual machine.
- Once the vm is up then in virtualbox add a USB filter for the FTDI device.
- For kernelci access you need to use either Firefox or Chrome - the Microsoft
    browsers will not work.
- You may need the vagrant scp command (if you wish to copy other files
   onto the VM) if so -
    vagrant plugin install vagrant-scp
- setup mybbb.dat to use the IP address of the VM rather than that of
    the host.

The wiki has been updated to document these steps.

Congratulations for this accomplishment.

So the former 5 steps documentation now includes the specific steps to take if you are a Windows 10 user. There is no separate documentation since most of the instructions to execute are the same in both cases (Windows and Linux).
