Windows inside Ubuntu

My Ubuntu Desktop snapshot







If you are a newbee to ubuntu or cant leave some of the features of windows then best way to use virtual os.

Now make your gui easier and use both at same time.

Install virtualbox a free virtual os manager from sun microsystems .


sudo apt-get install virtualbox



run as super user (or else you may get errors at times )



sudo virtualbox



install the virtual os , before that create a virtual hard disk of required size




go to the settings tab of virtualbox and


mount the xp or vista iso image

click start button and you must get a boot option do as prompted


then on the mode use


seamless mode



thats it ! now you can use both OS with single interface


Demo video is here .. you can have a look at it ;)
