So the system at any one time can only run Virtual Box or Hyper-V (and Docker for Windows), not both. And the one finding that took longest to realize: Virtual Box will not work if Hyper-V is enabled.In order to use Hyper-V or Virtual Box, hardware virtualization must be enabled in the system’s BIOS.(Hyper-V is built into Windows as an optional feature it needs to be explicitly enabled) Hyper-V on Windows is very similar to VirtualBox Hyper-V lets you run an operating system or computer system as a virtual machine on Windows. I do not believe though that I can run containers that expose a GUI – except through a VNC client Docker for Windows provides near native support for running Docker Containers the fact that under the covers there is still a Linux VM running is almost hidden and from command line (Powershell) and a GUI I have easy access to the containers.In this article a brief summary of my explorations and findings. I quickly ran into some issues that made me reconsider – and realize that some things are different on Windows 10. And I immediately tried to return to the state I had my previous Windows 7 laptop in: Oracle Virtual Box for running most software in virtual machines, using Docker Machine (and Kubernetes) for running some things in Docker Containers and using Vagrant to spin up some of these containers and VMs. Wait until Windows installation is finished.Recently I started working on a brand new HP ZBook 15-G3 with Windows 10 Pro. I chose the advanced option of just installing Windows. Windows installation screen will be displayed. Select Windows 10 OS from VirtualBox main screen and click “Start”. Select ISO file download in previous step. Remove any empty optical drive that may exist.Ĭlick on button “Adds new storage attachement” > “Adds optical drive”. Name your OS and select the correct OS version (in my case it was “Windows 10 (64-bit)”. Open Virtual Box by going to Start > Oracle VM VirtualBox. I used a USB memory stick (filesize is 3,90 GB). When it proposes to burn ISO on CD, just click on “Finish”.įind the newly created “Windows.iso” file and copy or send it to your Linux/Ubuntu computer.When askw which media to use, select “ISO file.Select language, architecture and edition.Select ‘Create installation media (USB flash drive, DVD, or ISO file) for another PC. Run the tool from a Windows computer and follow these ISO creation steps: Visit Microsoft Media Creation Tool from this link.ĭownload “Microsoft Media Creation Tool”. If everything is fine, you will get this output: Sudo apt-key add ~/Downloads/oracle_vbox_2016.asc In my case, file was in Downloads folder so I used this command: Go to the terminal and enter the command below: You may have to right click on link and select “Save as”.
