The freshly installed VM in "pure" profile uses 1.4 Gig on the host HD, while it goes up to 3.25 Gig with the "base" profile. It is quite significative to note the installation of the "base" profile does add about 1.8 Gig to the VM footprint - this is not negligible. I would also like to use the "pure" profile, as I don't need all the packages that are provided with the "base" profile for this minimal VM. Hence I need to use the virtual CD that is provided with VirtualBox. However, I discovered that the automatic installation of the VirtualBox Guest Additions doesn't work in the 32 bits edition. I am trying to use Q4OS 2.7 in 32 bits as I figure this is what would give me the smallest VM to run the intended software. Since I have discovered this program with my Linux machine, I have to have it also on my Windows machine! It is like a photographer's dream come true. The software I want to run is Rapid Photo Downloader.
So the project is to have a VM that uses the least possible RAM and has the smallest possible image file (footprint) so that it doesn't take too much resources from the host computer to run. Today, I am trying to build a minimal Linux virtual machine to run some Linux-only software in a Windows host machine. I still have an old computer running Q4OS 1.8 without fuss. Is there any other fix to this problem? Any help would be appreciated.I am back here after a couple of years. I can make the simulation launch if I disable the 3D acceleration settings in VirtualBox but if I do, Ubuntu's UI lags really badly and becomes unusable for the most part. I've been trying to run the Turtlebot simulation as per the textbook, Programming Robots with ROS, but when I do, this is the error message I receive: I have ROS Kinetic installed on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS in VirtualBox 5.1.18.
