K7. Installing virtualization software on a computer
Let's move from theory to practice! In this video, we'll walk through the entire process of deploying a virtual environment to a physical computer. We'll learn how to prepare the host system, enable the necessary features in the BIOS, and safely install our first virtual machine.
This lesson is a key practical step for Qualification: 06111.1 Computer Technical Support Operator, providing skills in simulating real-world IT infrastructures without risking the host system.
What you'll learn in this lesson:
BIOS/UEFI preparation: Activating Intel VT-x or AMD-V for hardware acceleration.
Obtaining the software: Officially downloading VirtualBox and verifying file integrity (Checksum).
Modular installation: Selecting virtual network drivers and USB support.
First virtual machine: Creating a virtual disk (.VDI) and balancing RAM.
Best practices: Using snapshots to quickly roll back to a stable state.
Troubleshooting: How to resolve conflicts with Hyper-V or lack of administrator rights.
