All steps worked great! Thank you! FYI - Others commented that they did not have buttons to select during the install. My buttons were cut off at the bottom of the window but I was still able to select them.
Sir (Title rightly deserved), This was outstanding for me. I'm an ME guy transitioning into the IT field. One of the first things I'm doing is tackling Kubernetes. I know it crazy (and painful) but I'm in it knee deep now. Your video help me tremendously and was very clear. Thanks for all that your do!!!!
I had followed a few other walkthroughs but they had all left me with a machine so slow it was useless and would ultimately freeze on loading causing me to reinstall as the only solution. So far I have a decent speed and not frozen yet. Thank you for this.
Thank you so much for the help! This was an amazing video with detailed steps along the way. I saw your previous video and was able to download the VirtualBox. Now I have successfully installed Ubuntu and running on my virtual machine. Seriously, thank you again! Couldn't have done this without your help.
If You happen to come across this error - Could not mount the media/drive 'C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso' (VERR_PDM_MEDIA_LOCKED). Try the following - 1. In the Ubuntu VM, Find the VBox_GAs_6.1.32 iso file in the left side of Files explorer. (You can also look for the CD icon on the left side) 2. Once you open the folder, Right click and Choose 'Open in Terminal' 3. Run the following command : sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run 4. Once the file runs and if you get a message like the following - 'VirtualBox Guest Additions: Running kernel modules will not be replaced until the system is restarted. ' Then the process has completed successfully. 5. You may go ahead and restart the Virtual Machine.
6:22 My only issue with the video is this cut. Because for a first timer to VMs I didn't know exactly HOW to shut off the VM (turns out it's a hard shut off instead of saving its state) and when I rebooted it it was a black screen for sooo long and I thought something was broken but it finally booted up. Another thing for anyone who can't figure out why their terminal doesn't show their password, apparently it's just invisible. Which must suck if you have a long password so keep that in mind!
for anyone wondering why they didnt get a prompt after hitting the insert guest addition CD there will be a CD icon appear on the side bar you need to click this and run the software there.
great video I tried to copy and past the sudo apt install with control shift v and right click paste and niehter worked. I ended up typing it in and that worked
9:39 until here, everything was fine. After that..when I started Ubuntu..now it's stuck.. tried 2-3 times.. closing and starting again but still same, stucked on black screen with faded "ubuntu" written below
At first, I couldn't change the amount of cores that the VM would use. Just in case anyone is having the same problem, I had to go into the BIOS and enable virtualization.
When I click "Insert Guest Additions CD image..." nothing happened... do you have any idea what I have missed? I think I did all previous steps sucessfully... not sure why I could not complete it. Someone could help me?
Sir, thank you for guiding me step by step for installing the Linux but at the end, while inserting guest additions I faced an error and it says unable to insert the virtual optical disk (destination) into the machine could not mount the media/drive to the virtual machine. What should I do to overcome it Thanks
It's already inserted so just open the image files, right click on autorun.sh and click run as a program and then it will prompt you to authenticate like in the video and then you will be able to install it.
If guest additions isnt automatically starting for you after you press devices -> insert guest additions, then run this command from a terminal to do it manually: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-additions-iso
