The bzipped images ( .bz2) are VirtualBox virtual machine images.

Decompress the bzipped image,  then  point VirtualBox at it as a machine.

It is an 8GB virtual hard disc with inx installed
and (hopefully) ready to go...

Because it is a sparse file it compresses down to this size, but
expanded it takes about ~700MB.

Obviously this can be increased up to 8GB, if you install extras or
put other data on the VirtualBox disc image.

Note that this does not log in automatically - as it is a virtual
"hard drive install" it just boots to a login prompt on all tty
virtual terminals ( tty1-tty6)

When you log in you get the corresponding menu (see end of ~/.profile).

Log in as: inx
Password: inx 

Might be an idea to change the password with "passwd inx"
to something sane, once you have it running ;)

Hint: log in on all of tty[1-6] , and save machine state before shutting
VirtualBox , if you prefer quick starts and no login...
