When that happens, you should get a prompt to run the software. Ive got a Windows 10 VM running on an Ubuntu host with Virtualbox 5.1.2.r108956 and up-to-date extensions and guest additions. This should mount a virtual CD/DVD drive inside the Ubuntu guest machine. To install VirtualBox Guest Additions software on Ubuntu virtual machine operating systems, select the Devices from VirtualBox host application menu and click Insert Guest Additions CD image. sudo apt install virtualbox-guest-dkms build-essential linux-headers-virtualĪfter installing the packages above, restart your machine and continue below. When you’re done, run the commands below to install the latest kernel header and dkms package to support VirtualBox. sudo apt update & sudo apt dist-upgrade & sudo apt autoremove
This is essential for programer or sys admin. Install Linux built tools sudo apt-get install build-essential. When you’re ready to install VirtualBox guest addition, run the commands below to update Ubuntu. On Ubuntu 12.04 default, press Ctrl + Alt + t to start a terminal.
The tool provides tight integration between the host and virtual machine operating systems, improvement to the VM graphics performance, shared folder between the host and guest machines, copying and pasting of text, images and files between the host and guest machine as well as mouse improvement. When operating the guest machine without the guest addition software, the guest machine will perform poorly and your experience with it will be limited.
