VirtualBox is a powerful virtualization software that allows you to run multiple operating systems on a single machine. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install VirtualBox on EndeavourOS latest version.
Before we proceed with the installation process, ensure that your system meets the following requirements:
Make sure your system is up-to-date by running the following commands in your Terminal:
sudo pacman -Syu
This will update all the installed packages and repositories.
Add the VirtualBox repository to your EndeavourOS system by running the following command in Terminal:
sudo nano /etc/pacman.conf
This will open the Pacman configuration file in the nano editor. Add the following lines to the file:
[archlinuxfr]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch
Save and close the file using the Ctrl+O and Ctrl+X keys.
Update the package lists by running the following command in your Terminal:
sudo pacman -Syy
Now, install VirtualBox by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S virtualbox virtualbox-host-dkms
To launch VirtualBox, search for "VirtualBox" in the "Start" menu and click on the icon. You can also launch it from the Terminal by typing the following command:
virtualbox
You have successfully installed VirtualBox on EndeavourOS. Now you can create and run virtual machines on your system. Enjoy!
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
