Think of it as using a live USB or disk for installing Linux. Then, if you have a multi-core CPU it is recommended to assign 2 or more cores for your virtual machine. You may find the CPU cores under the system tab. When you configure your system click ok and start the virtual machine.

Guest Additions are designed to be installed inside a virtual machine post installation of the guest operating system.
