✅ Installation on VM

  • ☑️ Suggestion 1
  • Internal harddisk in order to avoid slow reading/writing access to USB

  • ☑️ Suggestion 2
  • The iso for the Ubuntu in the VM
  • should be inside the downloads folder(internal disk) ⭕️
  • never install iso from the external disk ❌
  • if you put iso from the USB, it will take a long time

  • 😱 Incident: button does not appear

  • the continue button might not appear
  • 💊 click on tab, then click on enter key

  • 😱 Incident:
  • everything is installed,
  • but the next day, the machine does not boot
  • ❓ why does this happen? we gave the required minimum RAM
  • 💊 give more RAM

  • 😱 Incident: mouse disappears
  • after when everything is installed, mouse disappears
  • ❓ why does this happen? not enough graphic power
  • 💊 enable 3D acceleration, enable SVGA
  • mouse only work when minimum requirements are satisfied
  • so before installing, maybe disable 3D acceleration and SVGA
  • then after installing, if mouse is gone, enable 3D acceleration and SVGA

  • 💡 Note:
  • same .iso can behave differently depending on the host
