Abstract
The COVID pandemic has challenged us in continuing our instructional mission and provide high quality learning activities remotely. A key requirement for advanced technology courses is to duplicate the BMCC Computer Lab environment on the student's home computers.
This document provides detailed instructions for creating a "virtual machine" on the student's home computer. This document assumes the home computer is a PC desktop or laptop but this document will also work on computers running MacOS with an Intel X86 compatible chip,
Once the virtual machine is created, this document details the steps to install and configure an Ubuntu 20.04 Operating System inside this Virtual Machine. This Ubuntu Operating System environment is used in our CIS 440 UNIX class.
