Software for virtualization platforms
Hello, I’m seeking a lightweight operating system suitable for running Windows 10 alongside an Ubuntu instance inside a VM. Are any of ESXi or Proxmox recommendations fitting your needs? I’m open to solutions that are straightforward to use but also allow CLI or programming control. *Note: I also need the setup to run on a single device with a graphical interface.*
The simplest option is to install Windows 10 and turn on Hyper-V. This shifts the Windows operating system to run inside a virtual machine managed by Hyper-V. You can then simultaneously host Ubuntu in the same VM, allowing both systems to operate together. In essence, your computer runs Hyper-V as the underlying OS while supporting Windows 10 and Ubuntu above it.
Are you sure you need a VM? With WSL 2, you can run Ubuntu on Windows 10 now, making it much simpler to manage them. Check out the tutorial at https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/ubuntu-on-w...1-overview and follow the guide for setting up a GUI.
