Project Setup

Ubuntu Setup:

Windows Setup

1. Download VirtualBox: Visit the VirtualBox site, and click on "Download". You should then be redirected to this page, where you can click "Windows Hosts" to begin the download of the VirtualBox Installer.

2. Install VirtualBox: Once the download is complete, launch the installer and follow the instructions provided by the wizard.

3. Download Ubuntu ISO: Download the Ubuntu 22.04 from the Ubuntu Site.

4. Create a New Virtual Machine (VM): Once everything is done installing, open up VirtualBox and click on the "New" button to begin configuring your VM.

We should then be sent to this menu, and select the following: * OS: Linux * OS Distribution: Ubuntu * OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish

5. Configure VM:

   • Name and ISO: Add an ISO File in the "ISO Image" input, and give your VM a name.

   • Credentials: Change the default credentials, as if you don't Ubuntu will create a default account without sudo permissions.

   • Hardware Allocation: Allocate as much memory as possible, as well as some CPU cores for your VM.

   • Storage: Allocate approximately 35GB of storage for your VM to use, then click "Finish".

6. Network Settings: Go to Settings > Network, and change the adapter to “Bridged Adapter” to allow the VM to communicate with your local network.

7. Start the VM: Now that everything is set up, you can select and start your VM. If everything's working as intended, then it should look like this!

8. Test Connectivity: Click on the dotted-grid button in the bottom-left to open the "App Drawer". Search for the terminal and run ping google.com to test your connectivity. If you get a response, then it works!
