If you have a Windows machine or an Intel-based Mac OS X machine,
It's best that you buy a Intel/AMD-based machine that runs Windows 10/11 or Mac OS X.) (If you are considering buying a machine for school, Please talk to the instructor before proceeding.
If you can only get your hands on a machine that runs Android/iOS/ChromeOS or Windows 8 or something even older, You need a machine that runs a real desktop operating system, such as Windows 10/11 or Mac OS X.

Of doing programming assignments for this class. Therefore, you should install a standard 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 into a virtual machine for the sole purpose Into your desktop/laptop, and then install a standard 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 system into a virtual machine running inside the virtual machine hypervisor.Īnother major advantage of using this approach is that you can install as many virtual machines into VirtualBox. Instructions on how to first install a virtual machine hypervisor (Oracle VirtualBox in particular) Then install 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 into a virtual machine inside the hypervisor. To minimize the chance of hardware incompatibility, the best way to run Ubuntu Linux is toįirst install a virtual machine hypervisor (Oracle VirtualBox is recommended because it's freeĪnd available on both Windows and Mac OS X machines), ("standard" means following all the instructions on this web page). All programming assignments must compile and run on a standard 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 system
