1. Introduction
This post shows screens captured step-by-step of installing Oracle Linux on Hyper-V system, since creating virtual machine, answering basic questions from setup wizzard and installation of Linux Integration Service for Linux in Hyper-v enverionment
2. Step-by-Step
This step-by-step is divided into 4 parts:
- Part-I: Installing Oracle Linux ISO
- Part-II: Configuring Oracle Linux system parameters
- Part-III: Installing LIS(Linux Integration Service)
- Part-IV: Configuring Network
2.1. Part-I: Installing Oracle Linux ISO
- Step #1: Download Oracle Linux ISO from Oracle Site
- Step #2: Create a Hyper-v Virtual Machine
- Step #3: Capture "Oracle Linux ISO" an IDE device CDROM
