### 📥 Download Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure your computer fulfills recommended system requirements for Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS:
|
||||
|
||||
- 2 GHz dual-core processor or better
|
||||
- 4 GB system memory
|
||||
- 25 GB of free hard drive space
|
||||
|
||||
You'll also need ~5 GB of space for the downloaded `.iso` file, though you can delete the file once you've fully setup the VM.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to the [Ubuntu Desktop downloads page](https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop).
|
||||
2. Download Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS by clicking the green **Download 22.04.2** button.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 🖥 Setup a Virtual Machine (VM)
|
||||
|
||||
### ✨ Bonus Tips
|
||||
1. Open up VirtualBox and click the **New** button (you can also click on the `Machine` menu then press `New`).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. On the new popup, provide a name that you'd like to identify your VM, the folder in which you'd like to install your VM, and the Ubuntu `.iso` file that you've downloaded. Then click **Next**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Enter a valid username, password, hostname (this is what Ubuntu considers its name as), and enable Guest Additions along with pointing to its `.iso` file. Then click **Next**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. Set the Base Memory and Processors to the appropriate settings. You may have different values but a general guideline is to stay anywhere within the green section up until the border with the orange section. Generally the more you allocate, the faster the VM. Then click **Next**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. Select **Create a Virtual Hard Disk Now** and set a Disk Size of at least 25 GB. Then click **Next**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. Click **Finish** on the Summary page. Your VM should now be powering up and it may take a while for Ubuntu to install.
|
||||
|
||||
### 🏁 Final Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. On your Ubuntu VM, login to your account with the username and password you set earlier.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Click **Skip** or **Next** on the top right for the welcome screen that appears (adjust any settings based on your preferences).
|
||||
|
||||
3. Click **Done** to finish the welcome screen.
|
||||
|
||||
You have now successfully installed Ubuntu.
