Creating Virtual Machine 63
3 Here you should specify the type and the version of the guest operating system you want to
install on the new virtual machine. When the guest operating system is specified, click
Next
button.
4 In this last step you should define a name for the virtual machine and indicate in which
folder on the hard disk the virtual machine configuration file should be stored. By default
the wizard will put it into standard place with a standard name. (The default folder for
Parallels virtual machines is specified in the
Preferences->Common (page 90) window.)
Enter a descriptive name for the virtual machine in the
Virtual machine name field. The name
should be no longer than 50 characters.
In the
Configuration file field the default path and name for the configuration file is shown. If
you do not like the default name or path you may browse your file system to locate an
appropriate folder and name. You may also make changes directly in the field.
Click
Finish to begin the process of creating your new virtual machine, or click Back to
examine settings on the previous steps.
