In this video, we walk through the complete installation of Parrot Security OS as a virtual machine using VirtualBox.
The tutorial covers every step needed to correctly set up the environment, from initial preparation to the first successful boot.
This video will help you:
Download and prepare Parrot OS for virtualization: https://www.parrotsec.org/download
Create a VirtualBox virtual machine (with the configurations in video)
Allocate system resources correctly (CPU, RAM, storage)
Complete the Parrot OS installer inside the VM
Perform the first boot and initial system checks
Verify that the virtual machine is working properly
All steps are shown clearly and executed in real time, focusing on a clean and stable virtual setup.
Note (02:46): During the setup, a full system upgrade is performed.
This step is important to ensure the system is fully updated, stable, and secure, but it can require a significant amount of time depending on the system and network speed.
In many cases, the upgrade process may take more than one hour... (in the video it is clearly sped up).
