# Ubuntu
## OS Installation
Install the latest version of [Virtual Box](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads).
> The text instructions are more important than the screenshots
Screenshots of the installation of Ubuntu in Virtual Box are [here](https://github.com/xpetit/vbox-ubuntu-install/blob/master/README.md).
Download and boot the [last Ubuntu release](http://releases.ubuntu.com/19.10/ubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso).
- Create a new virtual machine named "Ubuntu" with at least 4096 MB of RAM
- Use the fixed size storage allocation (to have more performance)
- In the settings of the VM
- System -> Motherboard : check "Enable EFI"
- System -> Processor : Select at least 2 processors
- Display -> Screen : Put "Video Memory" to the maximum
- Enable 3D acceleration
- Storage
- Remove IDE controller
- Add Optical Drive to the SATA controller
- Choose your Ubuntu ISO image
- Close the settings (click OK)
- Run the VM
Follow the screenshots (some settings can be personalized, such as keyboard layout, location, password, login automatically, but **do not change the username**)
Skip the welcoming window.
Don't install updates if Ubuntu asks to. The scripts will.
## OS customization
You can overwrite the files of the folder `system` by setting an environment variable named `OVERWRITE` with the format : `Destination folder;Git URL`.
For example to write the content of the repository [github.com/xpetit/custom](https://github.com/xpetit/custom) in the system folder :
```shell
export OVERWRITE='.;https://github.com/xpetit/custom.git'
```
## OS configuration

```

After reboot you should install Virtual Box additions (and reboot again) :
