I use Gnome-Boxes and it works fine for me and very easy to use.You have the option to set the drive size and memory amount.The only problem I get is occasionally a distro will refuse to keep the resolution size you set so you have to reset it after every boot.Luckily it is not many distros that are affected that way.
Excellent video! Thank you. A question, if I may: is there a leader/master key I missed that will allow me to get back to the main machine? (without using the floating option you described)
Hey Matt, you say that you blow away your hard-drive but how do you get back to your initial settings/configuration ? (I believe that you are on Arch using DWM) Are you using something like timeshift or maybe clonezilla? A video tutorial would be more than welcome. Thanks.
He said a long time ago, he used to wipe out his hard drive to try out other distros. After beginning this channel, he learned how to use virtual machines, so now he doesn't try out distros on bare metal. I suspect, and I'm just guessing, in those days he probably just did a fresh install from scratch or used previously made configuration files to restore his computer to a previous state. I did the same thing too. Before I learned how to use virtual machines, I used to wipe out my hard drive to try different distros. If I wanted to restore my computer, I would reinstall from scratch and use my configuration files saved on a thumb drive. Like Matt, since learning virtualization I don't test distros on bare metal and I also went from Virtual Box to Virt Manager.
either back up your .conf and other relevant folders, maybe even entire Home folder or set up HomeD and back-up your Home folder or if you like jank, create a separate partition for your Home folder so that you can wipe the system partition without touching your Home folder where all your settings/configs are
Loving the transitions you used
Its so sick!

Yeah, I use GNOME Boxes too and it works mostly fine
Great vid. I will check this out.
i appreciate the continuous reminders that one's linux install should indeed be encrypted by a very strong, and very complicated password. *****

Would u make video or 4:00 give link config terminal like your?
I just checked and quickenu is in the AUR.
great vid matt to manage them did u ever click the manage button on the gui? Its a big button to the left or that hamburger menu
Yup. I didn't get video of it, but all my vms were there. When you click it for the first time, it asks you for the directory of quickemu.
I am unable to connect to spice.
I have it installed via the AUR .
Matt I must try virt-machines did not see the point with them, good vid man.

What would be the advantage of switching from Virt-Manager to QuickEmu?
Nothing, they are both kvm managers. It’s just preference at that point.
Compared to virtual box however these tend to be a snappier virtual machine.
QuickEMU wasn't written in emacs though!
can any buddy tell me what is a gui & emu is
Gui= graphic user interface emu=emulator
My PC with 8gb ram screaming : plz.. god plz..
Did Matt used scene transitions in this video!?!?
They're called stinger transitions, so yup.
@@TheLinuxCast it's a nice touch but that said I'm afraid you can't call yourself lazy anymore... ;)
On Windows i use VMware, less than 60 seconds is running.
