For this blog post i will be covering the installation of Ubuntu Server 18.04.02 LTS
First we need to go to the Ubuntu Website and download the ISO Link
Once we have downloaded the ISO, we need to mount it to the Virtual Machine. – For this post I’ve skipped the Virtual Machine creation as this will be covered in another post. I will however point out that if you are wanting to use Secure Boot you need to change the Policy Template to: “Microsoft UEFI Certificate Authority”
Step One: Select your preferred install language: English
Step Two: Select Keyboard
Step Three: Select the installation type
Step Four: Configure Network Adaptor
NOTE: For this example i will be using DHCP. I don’t advise this for a production install.
Step Five: If you’re deploying behind a proxy configure the details here
Step Six: Configure Mirror Address
Step Seven: Configure Partition Table and Layout
NOTE: For this example i will be using the LVM Table
Step Eight: Choose Target disk for OS Installation
Step Nine: Confirm Partition Table and Layout
Step Ten: Configure Local Administrator Account
Step Eleven: OPTIONAL Install OpenSSH Server
NOTE: I Would recommend you install openssh-server
Step Twelve: OPTIONAL Configure Featured Server Snaps
Now we wait for the OS Installation to complete
Welcome to your shiny new Ubuntu Virtual Machine
