The next step is to select the virtual machine's memory, preferably greater than 1GB, because the compiled ROM also requires a lot of memory. But this is also depending on the situation, preferably not more than their own physical memory half, otherwise prone to the lack of memory capacity of the host.

The next step into the virtual hard drive selection, I have here because there are already created good, if not created good, you can create a new, but it is best to use a fixed capacity, and the size of more than 20GB. This is because Ubuntu itself requires a portion of the hard disk space, and the compilation and source code will also require a portion of the hard disk space. Lack of space on the hard disk, it is embarrassing.
