boot up the VM. The terms "guest machine" or just "VM" refer to the

-the terminology above) and then use that main desktop machine to SSH and
-web browse into the "guest VM" as they work through the tutorial. If
-you wish to install X-Windows (or any other packages), just use the
-C<aptitude> (or C<apt-get>) Debian commands.
