I downloaded the latest version of Oracle VirtualBox for Windows and installed it (version 5.1.20). Then I downloaded Ubuntu 16.10 ("Yakkety")
from the Oracle Linux distributions page. Note that the extension of the downloaded file is deb
.
When I started the VM for the first I was prompted for a ISO file, couldn't find the option I needed (basically got confused as it was asking for an iso
but I only had a deb
file!). Tried to continue but got the expected message: FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted.
How do I install the virtualbox-5.1_5.1.20-114628-Ubuntu-yakkety_i386.deb
into my VM?
