VirtualBox allows creating virtual computers capable of running multiple operating systems without the need for dual boot mode or hardware configuration. Installing VirtualBox is not too complicated, most of the time is spent installing the standard operating system. See Step 1 below for how to install VirtualBox and the operating system.
Steps
Install VirtualBox
- There are many options for the Linux operating system. Choose the right package for Linux, or use the “All distributions” option if you don’t see Linux in the list.
- During the installation of Windows, keep the default settings.
Create Virtual Machine
- If you downloaded the ISO file for the installation disc, you can burn the contents to a blank DVD or install directly from the ISO file.
- For example, if you are installing Windows 7, you must select “Microsoft Windows” in the Type menu and then select “Windows 7” in the Version menu.
- If you are installing a 64-bit version of your operating system, make sure you select the 64-bit item in the Version menu.
- You can select the amount of RAM equivalent to that used to install the operating system.
- It is not recommended to choose the maximum level because that way there will be no free space for the normal operating system when running the virtual machine.
- Make sure the virtual hard drive has enough space to install the operating system. Check your operating system specifications to determine the minimum amount of space required.
- Bear in mind that any installed programs will also write to the virtual hard drive’s memory, so plan accordingly.
- The most common virtual hard drive format is VDI (VirtualBox Image Disk).
- A new wizard will appear to begin the operating system installation process.
- If you are installing from a disc, insert the disc into your computer and select “Host drive” and then select the corresponding drive letter from the pull-down menu.
- If you are installing from an image file, click on the folder icon to access it on your computer and start the installation.
- Windows 8
- Windows 7
- Windows Vista
- Windows XP
- OS X
- Linux Mint
- Ubuntu Linux
Using Virtual Machines
- The virtual machine runs on a window. No matter where the virtual machine window is focused, any keystrokes or mouse clicks will affect the virtual machine, but not the real machine.
- You can create a desktop shortcut by right-clicking the machine in the VirtualBox window and selecting “Create Shortcut on Desktop”.
- Save machine state – This option allows the virtual machine state to be saved on shutdown. Programs will be saved in their current state and everything will be restored when the machine is turned on.
- Transmit the signal off – This option allows the virtual machine signal to be turned off, the machine will turn off when the power key is pressed on the real computer.
- Power off the machine – This option allows the machine to be powered off when the machine’s power is cut off. Content will not be saved.
- You can take a picture by clicking on the Machine menu and selecting “Take snapshot”. The screenshot will be added to the virtual machine book on the left side of the VirtualBox menu.
- You can restore a snapshot by right-clicking it and then selecting “Restore”. Changes to the virtual hard drive from the time the image was taken will no longer be restored.
