I need VB to run a "virtual" console.
I have VB Linux installed, but can't seem to get Chrome into the VB as thats what the "virtual" runs on.
Anyone lend a hand?

What flavor of Linux did you install on your VM?
usually getting anything installed - like Chrome - on Linux is as simple as:
sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable
Getting an icon to appear in your GUI is a little trickier and depends on the GUI. But what do you want to DO in Chrome? And be a little more specific about what you mean by "virtual console" as this could be anything from a web interface for some home appliance to something that presents as a Nintendo Gameboy.

read the install instructions and results wrong.
the OS is Fedora 32b version of Linux.
It's a virtual broadcast console, specifically Calrec.
In theory, allows one to see and use the GUI of the hardware of their 2 "senior" consoles, Apollo & Artemis.
The install instructions are a bit off coz what you see as you go thru the VB install is different from what the guide says.
Once the VB/Fedora is running, prompt says "browse to xxx.xx.x.x." to use the virtual.
But no browser appears.
