Добавить Windows & других систем с VirtualBox

2 ноября
Ubuntu кармических Koala

Вот как использовать VirtualBox для установки & эмуляции виртуальных операционных систем для работы в Linux. Запустите Windows, например, подобно любым другим приложением, без перезагрузки требования. Эй, окна, даже запускается быстрее, чем реальная вещь (не то что тяжело.) Или сравнить альтернативные операционные системы. Вы можете добавить сколько угодно.

Двойного или множественного загрузке все хорошо и хорошо, но для многих общих задач, нужно просто перейти, скажем, между кармические и другой ОС на несколько минут, а затем вернуться. Что тратой времени перезапуска компьютера, дважды за это.

Cue VirtualBox.

Set Up & повышение Ubuntu 9.10 .. Кармическая KOALA БИБЛИИ

В простое Copy / Paste шаги .. от нуля до героя.

Прокрутку вниз для полного индекса серии.

Проснуться и почувствовать запах Ubuntu! Надеюсь, что это помогает. The_guv

Проще говоря, это пчелы-колени. Кто-то может возникнуть искушение назвать это собаки danglies или Билли ерунда (ни один из которых, кстати, были Ubuntu изданий). Это дает второй к никто виртуализации Windows, и открытых источников. Вс пушки, это вещь Sun Microsystem. Он поддерживает корпус наиболее ОС.

Позвольте мне сказать больше ..

Установка и запуск гостевой ОС приложений почти без проблем. В Windows не загружается, выключения и перезагрузки его в часть времени занимает обычно к погрузке или выгрузке в рамках системы с двойной загрузкой или по своей собственной (из-за стойки эти бессмысленные услуг не получают коленчатые вверх). С В.Б. - и в особенности недавно VB3 - вы Впору задаться вопросом, почему на Земле кто-то возиться с двойной загрузкой больше, или приложений, таких как вино (которое по справедливости была чертовски удобная в прошлом, и, собственно, я по-прежнему используют слишком ).

Я использую Virtualbox для запуска не-Linux приложения, на сегодняшний день не имеют себе равных, как Photoshop и Camtasia, и для тестирования Linux Сети и настольных установках. Я тестировал рано Кармическая Koala кандидатов рабочего релиза на нем, например, перед переносом позднее строит на выделенный раздел.

Обратите внимание на динамический Kernel Module Support (DKMS), установленные рядом. Это так, что когда мы перейти на новое ядро Ubuntu, Б. не взведен вверх по обновленных модулей.

Для установки VirtualBox, следовательно, мы это делаем: -- 

sudo aptitude install virtualbox-3.0 dkms

The latest version of VirtualBox is 3.0.12. I haven't tried, but you could try using sudo aptitude install virtualbox-3.0.12 dkms rather than sudo aptitude install virtualbox-3.0 dkms . Then again, most likely it's not yet available in Ubuntu's repositories.

Notes on Installing Virtualbox

Installation is dead simple, just follow the prompts.

Regarding the RAM allocation , it depends how much you've got to spare but, bear in mind, the RAM will only be allotted to the guest while it's running.

Re. Disc space , again, it depends how much you can afford, or need, to give.

For instance, of my Linux host's 4gB RAM, 128 mB video card and 500gB disc space, I allocate 512 mB, 36mB and 30gB respectively to guests.

One config screen will tell you a new user group is being set up, called "vboxusers" and, of course, you need to be a member of that group. No worries ..

When installation has finished, pop open a Terminal and type:-

sudo usermod -G vboxusers -a username

.. where username is your Linux username. So now you are a member of the Virtualbox group.

To start Virtualbox, goto Applications > System Tools > Sun Virtualbox

Installing Guest Operating Systems with Virtualbox

Once installed, open the app and click on "New", and follow the instructions to install your OS, just as you would normally.

F'rinstance, if it's Windows XP, you can use my Perfect Windows PC Install to ensure security.

Restore Your Old Virtual Machines in Virtualbox

If you're reinstalling VB, you needn't bother reinstalling operating systems if you don't want to. Just use the machine states from a previous Virtualbox installation, and save serious time.

Check out this cute-as tip:-

Restore Old Windows XP/Vista/7 in New VirtualBox Install

Installing Guest Additions

Guest Additions improve the performance of the guest OS, in a bunch of ways. Say, you want full screen? Course you do! Install Guest Additions.

To install them open Virtualbox, then one of the guest operating systems. The virtual OS dialogue appears:-

  • In the top left menu, goto Devices > Mount CD/DVD-ROM > choose your disc drive
  • Goto Devices > Mount CD/DVD-ROM > CD/DVD-ROM Image...
  • Up pops the Virtual Media Manager, possibly already displaying the file VBoxGuestAdditions.iso . If not, find it in somewhere like /usr/share/virtualbox/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso
  • Select the file and it's mounted on your guest OS, triggering the image's autostart
  • Follow the setup procedure

Creating Shared Folders

This is handy, for instance, if you want to create an image in Photoshop (via Virtualbox/Windows), before adding it to your local Linux-based web files.

If your guest Windows system is running:-

  • Goto Devices > Shared Folders > press the 'Insert' button or click on the '+' icon
  • Type the folder path or browse for it
  • There are options for 'read only' and whether you want the share to be permanent or temporary

If the guest OS isn't running:-

Open Virtualbox > click on Settings > click on Shared Folders .. and follow the above procedure

Now, use your guest as normally you would, were it a primary system, and switch back and forth between the host Linux and however many guest systems.

    Hey, Gov!

    Good stuff on your page(s). I have just moved up to Karmic, and want to a documents partition. Since I use Open Office (in Ubuntu and in Windows), I think I should be able to read Open Office files from either OS if they are on the common documents partition. Right? (Or am I out to lunch?)

    Also wanted to thank you for your piece on VBox. I have used VBox previously with XP and Jaunty. Haven't gotten that far yet with Karmic and W 7 because I upgraded the CPU and HDD.

    Anyway, thanks for your good info. Keep up the good work.

    Boris

    @Boris .. yes, you can do that. Open Windows in VB and then click on Devices > Shared Folders, and store your docs in there. But. Have to say, you'll be wanting a fairly beefy PC to access your Shared Folder quickly.

    Big cheers m8.
