It works great, but it is time to switch to a more professional tool: <a href="https://www.qemu.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">QEMU</a>.</p> <p>QEMU can do everything VirtualBox does and more. It can emulate ARM architecture on x86, offers better performance, and is fully open source. In this guide I will create a VM with Ubuntu 26.04 and bootstrap a Kubernetes cluster inside it.</p>
