For virtual machines, you can choose VMware Workstation Pro. VirtualBox is a relatively small volume for free. In VMware Workstation, the interface is not displayed completely during installation, so that the next step is invisible on the partition interface. So you don't need him)

Ubuntu is a beginner who provides a graphical interface similar to Windows. For beginners, You can provide an excessive limit or see the effect after each command is executed. Of course, try to force all your operations to use commands.

3. Create a virtual machine

Open VirtualBox

Select Linux as the name and select Ubuntu 64-bit as the type.

Click Next

 

Select the system memory. Select 1 GB. If the system memory is large enough, you can select a larger value.

Click Next

 

Create a virtual hard disk, and put the system of the virtual machine in this virtual hard disk (simulate a hard disk using a file ). Because I have a new virtual hard disk and there are no other virtual hard disks, select "create virtual hard disk now"

Click Create

 

Select the virtual hard disk file type. Among them, VDI value VirtualBox is used, VHD is used by a Microsoft Virtual Machine, and VMDK is used by VMware Workstation. Formats can be converted to each other. Here we choose the first type, that is, VDI.

Click Next

 

Personal interests.

 

 

By default, the virtual file is created on drive C. We recommend that you select the drive letter. I have a large hard disk space and set it to 20 GB. You can set more than 8 GB.

Click Create

Based on the "Dynamic Allocation" and "fixed size" selected during the creation of the virtual disk, the slightly equal time is different.

 

4. Install Ubuntu

 

Right-click the new virtual machine and choose settings.

 

Click the disk icon on the right. Select a virtual disc file. Find the iso file of the Ubuntu system you downloaded and select it. After confirming. Start the VM.

 

 

You can select a language on the leftmost side. We recommend that you use English directly. Select Chinese if you cannot understand

Try Ubuntu without installation. do not perform any operations on the hard disk. Try Ubuntu

Install Ubuntu

Click Install Ubuntu to go to the next step.

 

 

Prepare the installation Interface

Download updates while installing Ubuntu when installing the system, Download updates. This check box can be clicked only when the network is connected.

Install thir-party software for graphics and Wi-Fi hardware Install third-party graphics software and WiFI and other media plug-ins such as Flash and MP3

The above two items are free to choose based on personal interests (I have no choice. After the selection, an error will be reported after the installation of the virtual machine, but it does not affect the system usage. Use the corresponding software to install it ).

Click Continue to go to the next step.

 

 

If you have installed a system on this virtual machine before, this interface is not the same.

Erase disk and install Ubuntu will delete your existing system and reinstall a new one. It is equivalent to formatting the hard disk and then installing

Something else self-created partition and other information

Select Something else and click Continue to go to the next step.

 

Create a partition table. Partition the hard disk. Linux partitions are not described here.

I split the following three zones (of course, you may not get used to Linux. Windows partitions have three drive letters, and Linux has three folders ............)

 

/Boot partition to store the kernel and boot program. This partition is MB enough. Type: ext4

 

 

The/swap partition is equivalent to the Windows virtual memory. When the user's memory space is insufficient, the data is stored and the data is stored during system sleep. Space allocation: twice the physical memory, which is a waste.

 

 

/Store all the files in the root partition. I allocated all the remaining space. Its type is ext4.
(/Equivalent to c :\> in Windows)

 

 

After the partition is complete

Select/dev/sda for Device for boot loader installation.

Click Install Now.

 

 

The system prompts you to format all partitions. Click Continue. Format

 

Select the time zone and click your country. Click "Continue" after the selection to proceed to the next step.

 

Select the keyboard type. Make a decisive choice in English, because the Chinese language is not very useful, aiming at all commands, files are all in English. Click Continue to go to the next step.

 

Enter your name, computer name, user name, password, and Confirm Password

The two single-choice buttons are the passwords required for automatic logon and logon.

After entering the information, click "Continue ".

Here, Encrypt my home folder is used to Encrypt my home file. This is not important. Not fun.
