Let us install the Virtual machine 7.0 in Ubuntu 22 by following the below steps.

1. Create the repository for VirtualBox 7.0 with the below command in the terminal

echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/oracle-virtualbox-2016.gpg] https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian $(lsb_release -sc) contrib" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list
