VMWare virtual machine creation tutorial Create a Virtual machine through VMWare Player using a virtual disk downloaded from
osboxes.org (Ubuntu 16.04, 64 bits)
Create the Virtual Machine
1. Launch Virtual Machine creation procedure Open VMWare Player and start procedure
Create a virgin virtual machine With VMWare Player we cannot create a virtual machine with an external virtual disk (ie the one just
downloaded from osboxes.org). We must create the virtual machine and add the osboxes virtual disk
in a second step.
So fisrt creating a virtual machine with a virgin virtual disk. This disk will be deleted later once the
virtual disk of osboxes added to the virtual machine.

Set Virtual machine os type

Select Virtual machine destination location
Set virtual disk type This settings doesn’t matter since this default virtual disk will be deleted.
Only the virtual machine the osboxes virtual disk will be keep.

Customize hardware of the virtual machine
Set RAM of the virtual machine 4GB or more is a good settings however keep in mind you need to left RAM for Windows (1GB or
2GB for windows should be enough)

More RAM are allocated for Virtual Machine faster Ubuntu and compilation will run.
Please set at least 2GB especially if you need to do compilation inside your virtual machine.
Set number of cores of the virtual machine Please set has many core the host CPU has.
More cores are set faster compilation will run.
Set 4GB or more of
RAM (2GB at least)

Set 2 cores for CPU
(or more if your CPU allow it)

Verify and finish the virtual machine creation
Adding the virtual disk of osboxes.org
Copy the virtual disk of osboxes Copy the virtual disk just downloaded from osboxes.org to the location of the just created virtual
machine (see Location field in the previous screenshot)

Edit the virtual machine

Add the osboxes virtual disk
Click on add hardwre button

Add the osboxes virtual hard disk
Remove default virtual disk Since the virtual disk of osboxes have been added to the virtual machine, we do need anymore the
virtual disk added at virtual machine creation.
Select the just downloaded image from osboxes.org

set osboxes vitual disk as master By adding the virtual disk of osboxes in a second step then the virtual disk has been set as slave.
The master disk is the default disk created at virtual machine creation.
Since the default disk have been deleted (just before), the virtual machine doesn’t have anymore
master disk.
So the osboxes disk should be set as master.
