The VM resources of the guest OS should be friendlier with the host OS. If there is a conflict, the host OS can go down and the PC can crash. Make sure the guest OS will not conflict with host OS for the computing resource. For example, in a VM software, one can choose, processor count, RAM size, Hard disk size, Graphics memory, USB devices, etc. Using VM software, one can create a VM with a custom configuration. The VM Software needs a host operating system like Windows, Linux, and Mac OSX, and you can share the computing resource with the virtual/guest operating system. So, we can install an OS in VM as we install it in the actual PC. The OS that we are going to install in a VM will detect it as a physical computer. Simply, VM software is one that can emulate a physical computer system. You can see the installation of Ubuntu in VMWare and VirtualBox after this section.
