Here's some things I learned installing VirtualBox.
TI's notes
Here is how TI suggests setting up VirtualBox.
My Notes
- Download from here.
- Install as usual. I made no changes on the Custom Setup page. I got the following message some 9 times. I clicked continue.
- Start VirtualBox. Click New.
- Run the wizard and give your machine a name.
- I used 1024M for the memory size. Make sure your host computer has at least 2 times the real RAM as the virtual machine.
- Select Use existing hard disk and click
- Click
and select your virtual drive.
- Click Select, Next, Finish.
- Click
- Got to the Devices menu and select Install Guest Additions....
- Select Applications:Accessoris:Terminal from the menu.
- cd to /media/cdrom0 and run the file for your machine.
- Reboot your virtual machine.
- You can now resize your virtual machine screen.
