NCS2: Unable to run demos.

[Pham-Dang__Le-Minh]

Hello.

We have difficulties running the demos provided with the openvino  computer vision sdk.

The system was set up inside a VirtualBox running Ubuntu 16.04 Deskop with computer vision sdk 2018.5.455. Setup was performed according to the quick start guide: https://software.intel.com/en-us/neural-compute-stick/get-started

This guide seems to be deprecated, since some paths seem to have changed. 

When running 

sudo ./opt/intel/computer_vision_sdk_2018.5.455/deployment_tools/demo/demo_squeezenet_download_convert_run.sh -d MYRIAD

We get this error:

How can we fix this?

Hi Le-Minh. Did you run setupvars.sh under bin first ?

Thanks,
