Whatever you do, you can't do on ten-years old hardware... Yes, I know, that's all you have, but you just cant, in the same way your Honda can't fit another Honda inside.

Absolutely unclear of what you're trying to do.

Virtual Machines? No problem.
VMWare, VirtualBox, etc.
Install an OSas the guest, off you go.

Your host machine specs, however, are severaly lacking for such an endeavor.


But tell us what you're actually wanting to do.
 
Not really sure what is is you are asking....

Open Media Vault is a very low-resource storage OS based on Debian; you can tinker with it within Virtual Box...with but one storage drive, what is the point? Just attach a drive/some drives, and share it /them with others, little to be gained from running a storage OS virtualized when you can simply share the drive... (Either way, the host OS would need to be running....)

i would just like to run to of the same basic os on my pc at once, like an older version of ubuntu, or some other flavor of linux
