Virtual Machine Setup (VHD) PDF

This document provides instructions for configuring a virtual machine disk (VHD) file to run on either Microsoft Hyper-V or Oracle VM VirtualBox virtualization technologies. For Hyper-V, it describes how to import an existing VHD or create a new virtual machine using the VHD file. For VirtualBox, it similarly outlines how to add an existing VHD file or create a new virtual machine and configure storage and processors to use that VHD file. The goal is to setup a virtual machine environment for a K2 Core build, specifying directory locations and configuration options.
