Linux Live CD runs slowly in VirtualBox

So, I googled for solution, and found this https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=59456

Another problem is that there is no x64 enabled in VirtualBox, despite running Windows x64 https://superuser.com/questions/866962/why-does-virtualbox-only-have-32-bit-option-no-64-bit-option-on-windows-7

In short,

  • Go to BIOS, and enable certain settings
  • Create a virtual machine, with multiple cores and enable I/O APIC
