<li value="8">'''The virtual machine will now star'''t. You will see a window which displays the virtual video card from the VM. It's important to note that the VM can (and often will) run even when this display is not present. The virtual machine is running from the live disc at this point, and no software has been installed on the ''hard drive'' of the virtual machine.</li>
<li>Login to the VM and double-click: '''Applications'''>'''System Tools'''>'''Install to Hard Disk'''. The installation program, similar to the one used when installing Fedora in Lab 1, will appear. You will get a warning at one point during the installation process that the disk "May contain data" or "may need to be re-initialized" -- this is simply a warning that the virtual disk is completely blank, and it is safe to proceed with the installation.</li>
<li>During the installation process, when prompted for the drivea storage device, first select '''Specialized Storage Devices''', and then select "'''Virtio Block Device", when '''.</li> <li>When prompted for the hostname, enter "'''fedora1"''', and when prompted for the timezone, select ''America/'Toronto- Eastern Time Ontario''', and when asked about storage, select '''Use All Space'''. '''Use the default values for all other fields.''' Notice that the installer does not ask you what software should be installed; compare the installation time to the amount of time it took to do your Lab 2 installation.</li>
<li>When the installation is complete, select the menu option System>Shutdown to stop the Live Disc.</li>
<li>Start the VM from its disk image by selecting Virtual Machine>Run from the virtual machine menu. You will get the ''Firstboot'' configuration questions during the boot process (asking you to create a user, set the date and time, and optionally send the hardware profile to the Fedora Project). Create a user with the same name as your Matrix account.</li>
