Once you do that and the system boots, you should see a screen like this: Power it on and in the Select start-up disk menu, click on Add and select the previously downloaded ISO image to boot from. Then select the virtual disk size - 8 GB recommended minimum (10 GB if you’re installing a GUI) and then click on Create. Also select whether the storage should be dynamically allocated(recommended) or should be of a fixed size. For the hard disk, select Create a virtual hard disk now and then select any of the disk file types you would prefer. ![]() If you wanna stick to the CLI, then a minimum of 512 MB would suffice. If you plan on installing a GUI desktop environment (which I recommend you should), then a minimum of 2 GB of RAM is required. In our case Type is Linux and Version is Arch Linux (64-bit). Give a name to it, select a storage folder and select the Type & Version of the OS. There are both torrent links and HTTP direct download links available. Head over to the official downloads page of Arch Linux to download the ISO image.
