For Windows, the host key is the right Ctrl key. I usually like to change the host key in the Mac to the right command key because I use the left command key with tab to switch applications and it interferes with my shortcuts. Change the host key by clicking on the right command key. Then say "Close", and you'd have set the right command key as the hot key. By default, the network is set to NAT, which lets you access the Internet from within the guest Windows.
OK, I have a Windows 7 installer with Iso format here:. First, you need to open the VirtualBox , select New to create a new virtual machine.
Enter the name of virtual machine, herein called "Windows7" by me. Choose the number of RAMs to be provided to the virtual machine. Next, create a virtual hard disk for your virtual machine. Select the position where your virtual disk file will be created and designate the size of your virtual disk. Depending on your system hardware, it could result in slower performance for the host machine.
On to the Storage tab. Here is where you insert your Windows 7 ISO. Under Storage Devices , select the Empty slot. Then, under Attributes , select the disk icon. Browse the location of your Windows 7 ISO. Press OK. When the virtual machine boots, select your keyboard language and continue.
Hit Install Now , then accept the licensing agreement. On the next page, select Custom , then select the virtual disk image drive created earlier.
After that, the Windows 7 installation process will start. Go and make a cup of tea because this can take a moment. After the installation process completes, your Windows 7 virtual machine will restart automatically.
Windows 7 will restart a few times during the installation process. It is nothing to worry about. Allocate Memory to the Virtual Machine The next screen asks you to set how much memory you wish to give over to the virtual machine. Create a Virtual Hard Drive The next three steps are all about allocating disk space to the virtual machine.
Select Create a virtual hard drive now. Click Create. You will be asked to select the type of hard drive to create. Select your desired hard drive type. After specifying the hard drive type and the way the disk is allocated you are asked to specify how much disk space you are going to give over to the Ubuntu Virtual Machine. Do not go below the minimum set and create enough disk space to make it worthwhile. We recommend at least 15 gigabytes. Choose where you wish to save the virtual machine.
Specify the disk size. Start the Virtual Machine The Virtual Machine has now been created and you can start it by pressing the Start button on the toolbar. The first boot requires you to select a startup disk. Click the folder icon. Navigate to the downloads folder and select Ubuntu ISO. Click Start. Install Ubuntu Within VirtualBox Ubuntu will now boot into a live version of the operating system and a welcome message appears.
The first step is to choose the installation language. Choose a language. Click Continue. A screen appears showing how prepared you are for installing Ubuntu. If you are using a laptop make sure your computer is either plugged in or has enough battery life. We recommend you connect to a power source especially if you plan on installing updates as you go. There are two checkboxes at the bottom of the screen. Choose whether to install updates as you go.
Then choose whether to install 3rd party software.
