Friends today i am going to tell you how to operate different Operating Systems with out really Installing them with all those Head-ache procedures.
Firstly you need to download a latest version of VirtualBox.
You can get it from here.
Then install it like any other Windows applications.
To install a OS it must be available with you either in the form of a Live CD or an ISO image.
Then go with the following Steps:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once the installation completed successfully, start VirtualBox. No virtual machine is available, it is now to create one. Do not go running, it is very simple. Start your creation by clicking on "New".
Click "Next" and then you get a window that asks you to name your virtual machine and specify what type of system be installed on this virtual machine. So choose a name for your machine and then set the operating system "Linux" and as version "Linux 2.6".
We'll have to then determine the amount of RAM you allocate to the virtual machine. You shall be determined according to available resources on your computer and needs of your host OS. This parameter can be modified in the properties of virtual machine, if you do not properly assess the correct balance and train your machine, or your OS suffers, it will be possible to rectify later. I have 4GB of RAM in all, I decided to dedicate half of my virtual machine.
After clicking Next, it's about creating an image of hard disk to install your BT. So check the option "Boot Hard Disk" is checked and click Next.
A new window opens, click Next. This is to define the type of virtual hard disk image. A dynamic image size will fit your future needs so that a fixed image size will be limited to that which you assign. I advise you to choose a disk image size dynamics. Unless you do not already have a limited space and you do not want to see the virtual machine take too much space on your physical disk.
Click Next and then you must define the location and size of your virtual hard disk. Do not touch the site. Assign a size virtual hard disk, knowing that a minimum of 8Gb is required. For this tutorial, I decided to leave the default 8Gb.
Click Next and then you emerge on the summary of the configuration of your new virtual disk. Click Finish if you are happy to create the virtual hard disk.
You then arrive at the summary of the configuration of the virtual machine that you have set. If you are satisfied with the configuration, click finish.
Your virtual machine is then ready to welcome Backtrack. You've done the hardest! It only remains to install Backtrack 4 and voila.
In short, it is starting to backtrack liveCD on your virtual machine and to run the installer, which is on the desktop. Bring you then your DVD image of Backtrack, select your virtual machine and click on "Preferences".
You then go to the configuration of your virtual machine you can change many settings. Take to tune the performance of functions in your host system and the needs of your virtual machine, but we're not there yet. Go to the "System" tab and set the boot sequence.
Continue by going to the tab "Media" and specify the location of your DVD image of Backtrack. Confirm with OK
It is finally time to launch the virtual machine, oh joy! To do this, select your machine freshly set and click Start.
The machine then boot on the DVD image. Accept the proposed resolution screen (1024x768) and further launch, it may take some time. When the command line appears, the system is launched, just type startx to launch the GUI.
Once the GUI started, click once on the only icon on the desktop "install.sh". The installation begins.
Choose your time zone, keyboard, etc. and confirm the default settings. Do not worry for your data, formatting only concerns the virtual hard disk created earlier. The installation process starts, you will have time to go to make coffee and eat a snack, gourmet breakfast as you are.
When installation is complete stop the virtual machine and "pull" the image of the DVD virtual drive, using the method to put it. That's where we'll see if you understand what you have done !!
