This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing VirtualBox on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. VirtualBox is a free and open-source virtualization solution that allows you to run multiple operating systems on one machine.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
First, we need to install some packages required for VirtualBox to work. Open a terminal window and run the following command:
sudo dnf install kernel-devel kernel-headers make perl gcc elfutils-libelf-devel zlib-devel
This will install the necessary packages that VirtualBox needs to run on your system.
Next, download the latest version of VirtualBox from the official website at https://www.virtualbox.org/. Make sure to download the version that matches your operating system. Once the download is complete, open a terminal window and navigate to the Downloads directory using the following command:
cd ~/Downloads
To install VirtualBox, run the following command:
sudo dnf install VirtualBox-6.1-6.1.22_144080_fedora32-1.x86_64.rpm
This will install VirtualBox on your system. Once the installation is complete, you can launch VirtualBox by typing the following command in the terminal:
virtualbox
Congratulations! You have successfully installed VirtualBox on Fedora CoreOS. You can now create and run virtual machines on your system.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install VirtualBox on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. Now you can use VirtualBox to run multiple operating systems on your machine.
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!
