Could not find a manifest file #51

Got the version1 branch npm linked and went to my vagrant directory and ran:

yo vvv

I then selected the bootstrap option.

It immediately reported:

Could not find a manifest file at /Users/tyrun/dev/vagrant-web/www/wpmanifest.json

I thought the bootstrap would create that file via answering a series of questions?

Oh I see, I should have run the create command. The bootstrap command is for when you already have a manifest file.

I think the error message could be a bit more helpful in that regard. Perhaps something along the lines of:

Are you trying to generate a new site from scratch? Use the create command

or something to that effect

Did this command work for you? $ yo vvv:create

I receive the following message when I run the command mentioned Starting a new sharable project

$ yo vvv:create
Error vvv:create

You don't seem to have a generator with the name vvv:create installed.
You can see available generators with npm search yeoman-generator and then install them with npm install [name].
To see the 0 registered generators run yo with the `--help` option.

Note this is being done from my local Mac, and not while SSH'd into the vagrant machine.

Did the command successful work for you?
