Just a minute.   Why do you need a VM to demo LinuxCNC?   Boot the live CD.
   Any PC can simply boot the live image and run in simulation mode with no
VM.
It's more that just the demo Chris. I will be doing some development and 
testing later

What would the VM users say that the best free version of VM would be to
run LinuxCnc in. I have to do a demo for a client and I dont have a
working machine to do so with.

My test with 2 different version of LinuxCNC in Virtualbox works fine. 
They share space with other 16 VMs for different tests like ROS, 
Ubuntu firewalls, kubernetes, BSD, CentOS, etc.


Virtualbox is inside my Kubuntu workstation. I say go for it.

It would be more impressive if you had a low cost industrial SBC with 
functional LinuxCNC and use it for simple demo with LEDs, switches, 
and a stepper motor or two.


I just have to show the GUI's available. They are familiar with the CNC 
stuff. And I have to do some serious customisation on th eproject so I 
will be showing a lot of backend / HAL stuff to demonstrate the 
feasability of the project.

How about a Docker container launched on a Linux host machine? Did anyone
of you manage to run a container on a real-time-enabled host? Thank you.

One nice thing you can do with a VM, you don't even need to burn an ISO of the 
install media.  You can simply point the virtual computer's DVD at the ISO file 
and run the live install right from the ISO.
