Hardware access: Access to hardware can be limited since some hardware cannot be "passed through" a virtual machine. System resources: Since Mac OS X is running in the background, fewer memory and CPU cycles are available for Ubuntu.
You can run Ubuntu inside VirtualBox, Parallels, and Fusion, however there are the following disadvantages: If you want to install Ubuntu, but do not want to dual-boot, you can virtualise instead. Both of these take up hard disk space, and Ubuntu will take up disk space that you will no longer be able to access from Mac OS-X. For some people, this is a good balance and allows you to get more familiar with Ubuntu if you are new.ĭual-booting means you have two operating systems on your machine. If you are undecided, please read on.ĭual-booting allows you to continue running Mac OS-X when you need it, and allows you to boot into Ubuntu when you choose. If you have decided you would like to dual-boot, please visit MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation.
