If you are not sure, check this first. As mentioned before, you need at least 20 GB of disk space to be able to install Fedora. Otherwise, it will be available for regular usage. Before you click the start button of your virtual machine, you need to load the ISO as shown below [Optical Drive]. As your virtual hard drive is empty, the virtual machine will boot from this ISO. Think of it as using a live USB or disk for installing Linux.
Then, if you have a multi-core CPU it is recommended to assign 2 or more cores for your virtual machine. You may find the CPU cores under the system tab. When you configure your system click ok and start the virtual machine. If you have followed the process correctly, when you start the virtual machine you will boot directly from the ISO file.
When you see a similar to below screen select Start Fedora, and press the enter key. Before you proceed to the installation, it is essential to define your keyboard layout, your timezone and finally where the operating system will be installed. The partitioning process is straight forward. You made some free space as VDI earlier. It should be automatically recognized.
Select your disk and set the storage configuration to automatic. Click on Done to go to the previous dialog box. Now you just need to wait for five-six minutes for installation completion. As a last step, you need to power off your system. The next time you start the virtual machine with Fedora, you will be prompted to create a user account and set your password for Fedora Linux.
Guest Additions are designed to be installed inside a virtual machine post installation of the guest operating system. They contain device drivers and system applications that optimize the guest operating system for better performance and usability. This is a straightforward process.
To enable this feature, choose Settings on the VirtualBox home page and follow the instructions as below. I find the Bidirectional option the most convenient. In this tutorial, I will make a permanent shared folder. In the VM settings add the host system folder you want to share and choose the name that you want to appear at your VM.
While the virtual graphics card which Oracle VirtualBox provides all the basic features, the custom video drivers that are installed with the Guest Additions provide you with extra high and non-standard video modes, as well as accelerated video performance. With VirtualBox, users have the ability to use a fully-functional operating system, without having to do the setup on different hardware.
However, sharing USB and network devices between the host and guest machine is not as straightforward as it should be. In order for VirtualBox to have access to the USB subsystem, the user on host system running VirtualBox must belong to the vboxuser group. To do this, open up a terminal and issue the following command:. Once you run the command, you should either log out and log back in, or restart your host machine. At this step, plug in your USB stick and through your VM settings you should be able to find and add the medium as shown at the example.
You may want to use your virtual machine to another computer or it is time to build a new machine and you need to keep your virtual machine as it is. You can easily export your current setup and import it to another machine at a few easy steps. At the VirtualBox home panel, click on file and the export appliance. The Format option needs some attention. There are three different options of Open Virtualization Format 0. With ovf extension, several files will be written separately, compared to ova extension, which combines all the files into one Open Virtualization Format archive.
Nowadays, hardware has become so powerful and affordable that most of its power is not being utilized. Through virtualization technology, you can use those wasted resources. The need for physical machines is reduced, and consequently the energy consumption is less.
You can save money both from hardware and reduced running costs. On a larger scale, server virtualization is more of a basic requirement than an advanced concept. I hope you found this tutorial helpful in installing Fedora Linux in VirtualBox. If you face any issues, please let me know in the comments. Choose the keyboard. HTTP Configuration: select the source web site for example ftp. The installer is now fetching. Now it's a quite long process and every error from now on leads to a complete crash and you have to restart from point 4.
Biggest probability is a blocked stage2. If you have a running ntp server on your network you'll better choose to enable ntp. In the guest system, connect with smbclient rpm package samba-client T is the name given to the share in host system.
Afraid of command lines? Windows password is then asked and finally you can browse the shared folder with nautilus. As the default size of the X screen is a bit too small, we can modify the X.
