The Importance of Virtualization with VirtualBox

Virtualization allows you to create isolated virtual machines (VMs) within your physical computer, each running its own operating system. This technology is invaluable for software development, testing, running multiple operating systems on a single machine, and experimenting with different configurations in a controlled environment.

VirtualBox is widely used by developers, testers, and IT professionals for various purposes, such as software development, testing, running legacy applications, sandboxing, and learning different operating systems. Since it’s open-source, it is freely available for personal and commercial use, making it a popular choice for virtualization needs.

This guide will walk you through the step-by-step process of how to install VirtualBox 7 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) system.

Prerequisites

  • Minimal Ubuntu 22.04 LTS system installed
  • Sudo User with admin privileges
  • 4GB RAM or more
  • Multi Core Processor ( 4 Core CPUs or more)

Installing VirtualBox 7.0 on Ubuntu 22.04

Follow these steps to install VirtualBox 7.0 on your Ubuntu 22.04 system:

Step 1: System Update

Before you install VirtualBox, ensure that your system is up to date by running the following commands in your terminal:

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo apt update
sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo apt upgrade

Additionally, make sure your system meets the hardware requirements for virtualization, including support for hardware-assisted virtualization (VT-x/AMD-V) in your computer’s BIOS settings.

Step 2: Add VirtualBox 7.0 Repository

VirtualBox 7 is not available in the default package repositories of Ubuntu 22.04. So, let’s first import virtualbox package repositories keys, run following commands,

sammy@virtualbox:~$ curl https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc | gpg --dearmor > oracle_vbox_2016.gpg

sammy@virtualbox:~$ curl https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc | gpg --dearmor > oracle_vbox.gpg

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo install -o root -g root -m 644 oracle_vbox_2016.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo install -o root -g root -m 644 oracle_vbox.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/

Once the system is updated and Repository key imported, you can add VirtualBox Repository to it by running following echo and tee command to add repository :

sammy@virtualbox:~$ echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian $(lsb_release -sc) contrib" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list

Step 3: Install VirtualBox 7.0

Your machine is now ready to install VirtualBox. If you already have an earlier version of VirtualBox installed, the command below will update it automatically.

Finally, install VirtualBox on your Ubuntu 22.04 system by running the commands:

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo apt update

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) dkms

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo apt install virtualbox-7.0

To proceed with the installation, press ‘Y‘ when asked to confirm. Depending on network capacity and system performance, this may need a few minutes to finish.

Step 4: Launch the VirtualBox

After the successful installation of VirtualBox on Ubuntu 22.04, you can initiate it through the terminal.

sammy@virtualbox:~$ virtualbox

Or you can access from Desktop applications search.

Install Virtualbox on Ubuntu
Virtualbox Desktop in Applications Search

The new user interface for VirtualBox interface looks like below:

Install VirtualBox 7.0 on Ubuntu
VirtualBox Interface

Above window confirms that VirtualBox has been started successfully. Before start creating virtual machines inside the virtualbox, let’s first install extension pack in the next step.

Step 5: Install VirtualBox 7 Extension Pack

VirtualBox Extension pack provides additional functionality to virtualbox like support for USB 2.0 & USB 3.0, PXE boot for Intel Cards, disk encryption and VirtualBox RDP.

To Install extension pack, let’s first download its file using beneath wget command.

sammy@virtualbox:~$ wget https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.0/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.0.vbox-extpack

To install extension pack, run following command:

sammy@virtualbox:~$ sudo VBoxManage extpack install Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.0.vbox-extpack

You will receive a prompt to accept the License agreement. Press ‘Y’ to accept it. The output will resemble the following:

.....

Do you agree to these license terms and conditions (y/n)? y

License accepted. For batch installation add
--accept-license=33d7284dc4a0ece381196fda3cfe2ed0e1e8e7ed7f27b9a9ebc4ee22e24bd23c
to the VBoxManage command line.

0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
Successfully installed "Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack".

The confirmation above confirms the successful installation of the extension.

Now head back to VirtualBox GUI. From the File Menu choose Tools and then click on Extensions Pack Manager

Install VirtualBox 7.0 on Ubuntu
VirtualBox Extensions

The above window confirms the installation and activation of the extension pack. Now, we are ready to create virtual machines inside the VirtualBox.

Note: Please make sure VirtualBox version and extension pack version must match otherwise additional functionality will not work properly.

Conclusion

VirtualBox 7.0 is a powerful tool that opens the door to endless possibilities, from running multiple operating systems on a single machine to facilitating software development and testing. By following this step-by-step guide, you’ve successfully installed VirtualBox on your Ubuntu 22.04 system and learned how to create your first virtual machine. As you explore the capabilities of VirtualBox, you’ll find yourself empowered to achieve more with your computing experience, whether you’re a developer, IT professional, or enthusiastic learner.
