What is the best way to format a dvd to use to burn Windows 10 and use in VirtualBox?
Using Ubuntu 20.04 and have an iso downloaded from Microsoft

If you are burning a Windows 10 ISO image onto a DVD then the target format was already chosen (ISO9660 in that case) by whoever made that ISO image (Microsoft themselves I guess?). All you need to do is to burn it.
I've been using brasero. sudo apt-get install brasero.

Why do you need to burn a dvd to use in Virtualbox and how????!!! All you need is the iso.
I think what monkyebrain20122 is trying to say is that if you downloaded the iso and have it on your hard drive somewhere, you don't need to create a DVD to install it in a VM. When setting up the VM, just point to the file you already have on a hard drive as the installation media.

This universe is crazy. I'm going back to my own.
Thanks all for the very useful replies especially the fact that you can use the iso directly in VM . I am away on holiday at the moment but will give it a go when back.
Great forum! Mike
