We can choose to reserve space on the hard disk to store virtual machine files, or choose the option in which the virtual machine will increase the used space. Also we must select the space required by the virtual machine.ĭepends on the Operating System that we intend to install, the space required may vary from 2 Gigabytes to 60 Gigabytes. We can choose between Windows ( Windows XP, Windows Server, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, etc), Linux ( Ubuntu, Debian, RedHat, SUSE, CentOS, Fedora, and more), Novell NetWare, Solaris and Others ( MS-DOS, FreeBSD, and more).Ĭreated virtual machine is stored in directories and files on the hard disk, so we need to indicate the location where we want to store such files.
