A Ubuntu VirtualBox VM built by Fernando Marotta is available at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ZSlJozj8cgZ66BR_6_V3G3OVeBdEomNN. Download and unzip the archive. Once VirtualBox is installed (see below), you should be able to launch the VM by double-clicking file Ubuntu.vbox. Password for the user Dolo is dolito.
This is necessary to run the VM. See https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads.
This VM's language is Spanish. If you wish to change to another language, see instructions here: https://websiteforstudents.com/how-to-change-to-your-native-language-on-ubuntu-17-10/ Search in system settings for idioma --> select Region e idioma menu.
