How to install Fedora 34 in VirtualBox

Fedora is one of the most versatile Linux distributions of Linux which is available both in desktop version (Workstation) and for enterprise level (server). Fedora is currently available in version 33 but has released version 34 of its system in beta (trial)..

 

 

Fedora 34 will be available for aarch64 version with Plasma, we will also find a KDE version for devices with 64-bit ARM architecture. Wayland's support for Plasma and KDE components will have notable changes in Fedora 34 as one of the changes will be the change from the default Fedora KDE Spin X.Org-based session to the modern Wayland session.

 

Fedora 34 will feature Plasma 5.20 and it will be possible to select the X11 session as a desktop environment option if we wish..

 

At the moment we do not have any more first-hand news that will be available in Fedora 34.
In view of the fact that it is a system in beta or testing phase, what better way than to try it in VirtualBox which can be downloaded for free In the following link:

 

 VirtualBox

 

With VirtualBox we can create a virtual machine and know everything that we can see in Fedora 34, with TechnoWikis you will see how to create it and thus know in advance that Fedora 34 will have.
