=== VM Installation===
With the virtualization software installed and your personal network created, you are now ready to create your first virtual machine.

Note this information for the next few steps.# Download a installation checking script by issuing the command: <br> '''<span style="text-decoration:none;color:blue;">wget http://belmont.senecacollege.ca/pub/centos/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1511.iso</span>''' to download this image onto your host machine.# Set permissions and run this shell script to see if you have set-up your host machine correctly. NOTE: You will need an ISO file for CentOS 7 (the same one you burned your DVD from). It is recommended to use the command:<br> '''<span style="text-decoration:none;color:blue;">wget http://belmont.senecacollege.ca/pub/centos/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1511.iso</span>''' to download this image onto your host machine. In this way, you can keep it on your host machine for the remainder of this course in case you need it.
