Creation of the Virtual Machine
*******************************

Once you have properly installed your virtualization software, you can
proceed on creating all the virtual machines you need.

Using and configuring your virtualization software is out of the scope
of this guide, so please refer to the official documentation.

   Note: You can find some hints and considerations on how to design
     and create your virtualized environment in the Sandboxing
     chapter.

   Note: For analysis purposes you are recommended to use Windows XP
     Service Pack 3, but Cuckoo Sandbox also proved to work with
     Windows 7 with User Access Control disabled.

   Note: KVM Users - Be sure to choose a hard drive image format
     that supports snapshots. See Saving the Virtual Machine for more
     information.

When creating the virtual machine, Cuckoo doesn't require any specific
configuration. You can choose the options that best fit your needs.
