Technical requirements

The best way to get started is by having an RHEL 9 virtual machine to work with. You can do it on your main computer as a virtual machine or using a physical machine. In the following section, we will review both options and you will be able to run your own RHEL 9 system.

Tip

A virtual machine is a way to emulate a complete computer. To be able to create this emulated computer on your own laptop, if you are using macOS or Windows, you will need to install virtualization software such as VirtualBox, for example. If you are running Linux, it is already prepared for virtualization, and you will only need to add the virt-manager package.
