Can you use online banking even under Linux?

As a Linux enthusiast, after several determinations, he gave up the dual system and installed Linux only in his laptop

. After several months, he found that online banking is a big one. problem. I wonder if there is a good solution?

[Solutions]

For this problem, there is a more feasible method, which is solved by virtual machine. More well-known virtual machine software Virtualbox provides a Linux version, which can be used to use Windows
on Linux, thus solving the problem of online banking.

[Solution Method]

Here, I will install Windows 7 on Linux as an example.

My operating environment is as follows:

Hardware: HP6470B notebook; CPUi5-3340M; memory 16GB (2*4GB)

Software: Linux Mint 17.3 “Rosa”; Virtualbox 5.0.18; Windows 7 Pro 32

The installation process is not described one by one, and there are a few points when installing Windows 7 with Virtualbox.

1. After installing Virtualbox, you need to install the enhancement package, which is found on the Virtualbox official website download page, "VirtualBox 5.0.18 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack All supported platforms". After downloading, double-clicking should be installed automatically. If not, please start Virtualbox first and then install it in “Manage →Global Settings →Extensions.

2. Please use the original Windows 7 installation disk instead of the integrated installation disk such as Ghost.

3. When using Virtual to build a virtual machine, please pay attention to the same version. Please check the following options (extended feature and hardware virtual) in the system, so that your virtual machine can increase the number of CPUs to achieve Better operating environment (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3). My virtual machine has two CPUs, 4GB of memory, and it feels smoother.

4. Start Windows 7 in the virtual machine, then select the device in the main menu, install the enhanced function, so that a virtual CD-ROM will appear in Windows 7, including the addition Functional software, double-click to install automatically.

5. User rights allocation (very important, this step does not do virtual machine can not manage USB devices), please add the current user to the Vboxusers group in the Linux system, generally in the system → users and groups In the → management group & rdquo; find Vboxusers, select the current user in the properties, this step needs to restart the system to take effect.

6. Set the USB device, plug the U shield into the computer, and select U shield in the “Setting →USB Settings 

You should be able to use U shield after entering the driver of Windows 7 installation. If it is not recognized, just re-plug the U shield once.

I use CCB's personal online banking shield, which is also effective for corporate online banking. Just install the enterprise online banking driver management component.

Tip:

If you encounter a Linux kernel upgrade, the virtual machine can not open, just run: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup to reconfigure VirutualBox
