VirtualBox is an open-source virtualization software that enables users to run multiple operating systems (OS) on a single machine. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install VirtualBox on Fedora Server Latest.
Before installing VirtualBox on Fedora, ensure that you have the following:
The first step is to add the VirtualBox repository to the Fedora Server. Run the below command to add the VirtualBox repository:
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/virtualbox.repo
After adding the VirtualBox repository, you will need to install the required packages by running the following command:
sudo dnf install binutils gcc make patch libgomp glibc-headers glibc-devel kernel-headers kernel-devel dkms
Now, you can install VirtualBox on your Fedora Server by running the following command:
sudo dnf install VirtualBox-6.1
After installing VirtualBox, start its service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start vboxdrv.service
To ensure that the VirtualBox service starts automatically at boot time, run:
sudo systemctl enable vboxdrv.service
Congratulations, you have successfully installed VirtualBox on Fedora Server Latest. You can now create and run virtual machines on your Fedora Server.
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!
