- operating system (e.g., <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP</systemitem>, <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP\r

- <application>"VirtualBox"</application>, or <application>"VMware"</application>, or\r

- <para>As far as possible, you should perform the following steps in the exact order given since the\r
- success of many steps relies on the successful completion of earlier steps. You should make backup\r
- copies of files and environments when you are instructed to do so. In the event of installation problems\r
- those copies can allow you to back out of a step gracefully and resume the installation from a known\r
- state. See <xref linkend="backingup"/> for further information.</para>\r
