Yeah i have this too, just trying tessel2-vm this morning, doesn't look good if it's been like that for months now...

The problem seems to be that the VDI image is invalid. If you try to import it into VBox directly, you get these details. Anyone know how the VDI image is generated? Maybe it's been bugged for sometime now?

Could not get the storage format of the medium '/home/thecrazycodr/.tessel/vm.vdi' (VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED).

There we go, the problem is that the link to the VDI is invalid:

http://storage.googleapis.com/tessel-builds/

<Error>
<Code>NoSuchBucket</Code>
<Message>The specified bucket does not exist.</Message>
</Error>

Same issue still - the VDI is not hosted on googleapis anymore... anyone have a valid VDI or update on this issue?
