This tutorial is designed to prepare for another!

Preconditions

• VirtualBox installed
• Windows 10 ISO downloaded

Prepare VM

# switch into default VirtualBox directory
$ cd VirtualBox\ VMs/

# create new VirtualBox VM
$ VBoxManage createvm --name "Win10x64" --ostype Windows10_64 --register

# configure system settings of VM
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --memory 2048 --cpus 2 --acpi on --pae on --hwvirtex on --nestedpaging on

# configure boot settings of VM
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --boot1 dvd --boot2 disk --boot3 none --boot4 none

# configure video settings
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --vram 128 --accelerate3d on

# configure audio settings
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --audio coreaudio --audiocontroller hda

# configure network settings
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --nic1 nat

# configure usb settings
$ VBoxManage modifyvm "Win10x64" --usb on

# create storage medium for VM
$ VBoxManage createhd --filename ./Win10x64/Win10x64.vdi --size 30000

# modify a storage controller
$ VBoxManage storagectl "Win10x64" --name "SATA" --add sata

# attache storage medium to VM
$ VBoxManage storageattach "Win10x64" --storagectl "SATA" --port 0 --device 0 --type hdd --medium ./Win10x64/Win10x64.vdi

# add windows iso
$ VBoxManage storageattach "Win10x64" --storagectl "SATA" --port 1 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium /path/to/windows.iso

# add guest addition iso
$ VBoxManage storageattach "Win10x64" --storagectl "SATA" --port 2 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium /path/to/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso

# start VM
$ VBoxManage startvm Win10x64

You can now begin the installation. Do not forget the Guest Additions! After successful installation and configuration, you can remove the unnecessary media.

# remove media (on stopped VM)
$ VBoxManage storageattach "Win10x64" --storagectl "SATA" --port 1 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium none
$ VBoxManage storageattach "Win10x64" --storagectl "SATA" --port 2 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium none
