This howto will be on how to get MangosZero running on Debian in VirtualBox as Windows 7 64 Bit as the host
Installing VirtualBox
This part should be self-explanatory, I may recap on certain settings like BIOS and other default settings
Starting up Virtual box and Installing the base operating system
Create a new virtual machine, I'm going with a 64-bit install with Debian 7.2.0 ISOs. 512MB ram, create a 20GB dynamic partition. After the new virtual machine has been set up, give the server 12MB of video ram which is more than enough to run a server.
Start the server, and select your settings as you wish.
When installing packages, only install what you need because we want this server to be as trim as possible. No Desktop, XWindow or gui, just a straight server.
On the Software Selection screen, Unselect Everything but the standard system utilities.
Install the Grub boot loader
Setting up Build Environment for Mangos
Login as root, we need to install a few things first. After looking at top, I only have 58 processes total running and about 56k of RAM used. not bad at all. We want the OS to be as trim as possible, that is one of the goals for this article.
