TASK.No:1 Install Virtualbox/VMware Workstation
AIM:
Create two virtual Machine using two different OS on VMware workstation.
This experiment is to be performed through portal.

PROCEDURE TO INSTALL USING VMWARE WORKSTATION :

Step 1- Download Link Link

for downloading the software is https://www.vmware.com/products/workstation-pro/workstationpro-

evaluation.html. Download the software for windows. Good thing is that there is no signup process.
Click and download begins. Software is around 541 MB.

Step 2- Download the installer file

It should probably be in the download folder by default, if you have not changed the settings in your
browser. File name should be something like VMware-workstation-full-15.5.1-15018445.exe. This file
name can change depending on the version of the software currently available for download. But for
now, till the next version is available, they will all be VMware Workstation 15 Pro.

Step 3- Locate the downloaded installer file

For demonstration purpose, I have placed the downloaded installer on my desktop. Find the installer on
your system and double click to launch the application.

Step 4- User Access Control (UAC) Warning

Now you should see User Access Control (UAC) dialog box. Click yes to continue.
Step 5- VMware Workstation Setup wizard

Now you will see VMware Workstation setup wizard dialog box. Click next to continue.

Step 6- End User Licence Agreement

This time you should see End User Licence Agreement dialog box. Check “I accept the terms in the
Licence Agreement” box and press next to continue.
Step 7- Custom Setup options

Select the folder in which you would like to install the application. There is no harm in leaving the
defaults as it is. Also select Enhanced Keyboard Driver check box.

Step 8- User Experience Settings

 Next you are asked to select “Check for Updates” and “Help improve VMware Workstation Pro”. Do as
you wish. I normally leave it to defaults that is unchecked.

Step 9- Application Shortcuts preference

Next step is to select the place you want the shortcut icons to be placed on your system to launch the
application. Please select both the options, desktop and start menu and click next.

Step 10- Installation begins

Now you see the begin installation dialog box. Click install to start the installation process.
Below screenshot shows Installation in progress. Wait for this to complete.

At the end you will see installation complete dialog box. Click finish and you are done with the
installation process. You may be asked to restart your computer. Click on Yes to restart.
Step 11- Launch VMware Workstation

After the installation completes, you should see VMware Workstation icon on the desktop. Double click
on it to launch the application.

Step 12- Licence Key

If you see the dialog box asking for licence key, click on trial or enter the licence key. Then what you
have is the VMware Workstation 15 Pro running on your windows 10 desktop. If don’t have the licence
key, you will have 30 days trial.

Step13-At some point if you decide to buy

At some point of time if you decide to buy the Licence key, you can enter the Licence key by going to
Help->Enter a Licence Key You can enter the 25 character licence key in the dialog box shown below and
click OK. Now you have the licence version of the software.

3. Click “Continue” on the pop-up window

4. Type VM name, select “Linux” for the OS and choose “Ubuntu” for the version.
5. Choose the amount of memory to allocate (I suggest choosing between 512 MB to 1024 MB)

6. Click Continue or Next

7. Choose create a new virtual hard disk

8. Click Continue or Next

9. Choose VDI (VirtualBox Disk Image)

10. Click Continue or Next

11. Choose “Dynamically Allocated” click continue. This way, the size of your Virtual Hard Disk will grow
as you use.
12. Click the folder icon and choose the ubuntu iso file you downloaded.

13. Select the size of the Virtual Disk (I recommend choosing 8 GB) and click continue.
14. Click Create

RESULT:
RUNNING LINUX:
1. Choose Ubuntu from left column and click Start
2. Click continue on pop-up window

3. Click the folder icon and choose the ubuntu iso file you downloaded and click continue and start

#include main() {

printf("Hello World\n");

}
4. Save this file as “helloworld.c”

5. Type “ls” on Terminal to see all files under current folder

6. Confirm that “helloworld.c” is in the current directory. If not, type cd DIRECTORY_PATH to go to the
directory that has “helloworld.c” C Programming on Linux

7. Type “gcc helloworld.c” to compile, and type “ls” to confirm that a new executable file “a.out” is
created

8. Type “./a.out” on Terminal to run the program

9. If you see “Hello World” on the next line, you just successfully ran your first C program! C

CONCLUSION:
The project has been developed successfully and the performance of the system has been found
satisfactory.

If you plan to distribute application software in the virtual machine, be sure the correct software is
installed.

You may install application software in the virtual machine just as you would on a physical computer —
using a CD or an installer file on a network server, for example.

If you are installing from a file on the network, you may need to change the networking configuration of
the virtual machine or network settings of the guest operating system in order to navigate to the
installer file. If you need to make such changes, be sure to reconfigure the settings as needed after you
finish installing the application software.
