Kevin Burkeland is an instructor in the Information Technology program at Bellingham Technical College, in his spare time he messes around with linux and helps put on Linuxfest Northwest. In what seems like a prior life he was a Linux Sysadmin specializing in the AWS cloud and DevOps.

For this tutorial I will be showing you how to set up a virtual machine running linux that will work almost any home computer allowing you to try Linux risk free.

We will be using Oracle VirtualBox to set up a beginner friendly Linux distro. Walking you through the steps to get virtualbox set up, different configuration options for virtualbox and the options that a typical Linux distribution gives you during install.
