Unable to obtain Mac serial number #766

Closed dieterdemeyer closed 9 years ago

dieterdemeyer commented 9 years ago

Hello,

When running boxen in a VM, I get the following error:

--> Sorry, I was unable to obtain your Mac's serial number.
    Boxen requires access to your Mac's serial number in order to generate a unique GitHub personal access token.

The serial number with the ioreg command is something generated in a VM, I assume..

The code in the lib/boxen/preflight/creds.rb file seems to be modified for generating the token. Any suggestions besides reverting to the old code ?
