End-user documentation ¶ This page is for end users who are looking for information about how to download and run VirtualBox. In order to run VirtualBox on your machine, you need: * Reasonably powerful x86 hardware. Any recent Intel or AMD processor should do. * Memory. Depending on what guest operating systems you want to run, you will need at least 512 MB of RAM (but probably more, and the more the better). Basically, you will need whatever your host operating system needs to run comfortably, plus the amount that the guest operating system needs. So, if you want to run Windows XP on Windows XP, you probably won't enjoy the experience much with less than 1 GB of RAM. If you want to try out Windows Vista in a guest, it will refuse to install if it is given less than 512 MB RAM, so you'll need that for the guest alone, plus the memory your operating system normally needs. * Hard disk space. While VirtualBox itself is very lean (a typical installation will only need about 30 MB of hard disk space), the virtual machines will require fairly huge files on disk to represent their own hard disk storage. So, to install Windows XP, for example, you will need a file that will easily grow to several GB in size. * A supported host operating system. Presently, we support Windows (primarily XP) and many Linux distributions on 32-bit hosts and on 64-bit hosts. Support for Mac OS X is currently in the works (note also the last Mac OS X Beta). * A supported guest operating system. Besides the user manual (see below), up-to-date information is available at "Status: Guest OSes". User manual ¶ For up-to-date details, especially on current operating system support and software requirements, please take a look at the current user manual, which is available on the Downloads page. Downloads ¶ To download VirtualBox, please go to the Downloads page as well. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for end users ¶ The User FAQ provide common questions and answers not found in the user manual.

Comme vous le savez, il y a bientôt 1 mois qu’est sortie la dernière version de mon logiciel de virtualisation préféré, je parle bien-sûr de Virtualbox dans sa version 1.6.0. Je ne reparlerai pas dans ce billet des nouveautés de cette nouvelle moutures (vous les trouverez ici). Évidemment cette nouvelle version n’est pas encore présente dans les dépôts Ubuntu et si vous n’avez pas lu mon précédent billet sur son installation sur Ubuntu Hardy Heron, un petit tour ici vous permettra de combler cette lacune.

Eu amo a ultima versão Wubi. 29/04/2008 - 12:07 Adorei o que implementaram: Wubi agora baixa a ISO e rebaixa para verificar. Não seria mais fácil usar MD5 para verificar a integridade? Isso é só aqui, ou todo mundo tá com esse problema? (ah, to sem drive de DVD/CD, uma vez que eu arrebentei o flat ontem.. =)

http://wubi-installer.org/ “Está farto do Windows? Gostava de experimentar o Linux (neste caso o Ubuntu) sem ter que se preocupar com a criação de partições no disco, ou de fazer o resize da actual partição do Windows para instalar o Ubuntu? Agora é possível, e é tão fácil como instalar e remover uma aplicação no Windows… funciona às mil maravilhas. Wubi é o seu nome. E é tão simples e ao mesmo tempo fabuloso. O Wubi permite que se instale o Ubuntu (ou o Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Xubuntu) tal como qualquer aplicação do Windows, e cria uma entrada nova do menu de boot to seu PC com a opção para correr o Ubuntu. Nada de partições. Nada de complicações (para quem ache que criar e mexer em partições possa ser complicado). Para remover o Ubuntu, é tão simples como remover qualquer outra aplicação Windows. Mais simples que isto não há… Resumindo, o Wubi é: * Simples; * Seguro; * Discreto; * e Livre. É sem dúvida a forma mais simples de experimentar o Ubuntu.”

Wubi também funciona com parentes do Ubuntu - testado com o Kurumin NG “Primeiro um resumo sobre o Wubi: O Wubi (Ubuntu Installer for Windows) é um executável windows que permite instalar (e desinstalar) o Ubuntu dentro de uma partição windows, sem particionamento, e que agora vem incluído por default na versão 8.04. O processo de instalação é extremamente simplificado para usuários habituados ao Windows. Agora a dica em si. Se você tem uma iso ou cd de uma distribuição derivada do Ubuntu que não oferece um Wubi personalizado ainda, é possível usar o Wubi oficial do Ubuntu. Para isso, basta executar o Wubi com o parâmetro “–skipmd5check” na mesma pasta onde está o iso ou com o cd no drive. Aprendi isso lendo o WubiGuide, wiki do ubuntu: wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide. É claro que para funcionar o sistema derivado tem de manter certa similaridade com o processo se instalação do Ubuntu, então não vá pensando que vai dar certo com qualquer um, ok? Eu testei isso com o Beta 2 do Kurumin NG. Veja o passo a passo: www.guiadohardware.net/comunidade/showpost/3706314.html”
