The subculture that has evolved around hackers is often referred to as the computer underground and is now a known community.[2] While other uses of the word hacker exist that are related to computer security, such as referring to someone with an advanced understanding of computers and computer networks,[3] they are rarely used in mainstream context.[4] They are subject to the longstanding hacker definition controversy about the term's true meaning. In this controversy, the term hacker is reclaimed by computer programmers who argue that someone who breaks into computers, whether computer criminal (black hats) or computer security expert (white hats),[5] is more appropriately called a cracker instead.[6] Some white hat hackers[who?] claim that they also deserve the title hacker, and that only black hats should be called "crackers".

i dont have good pc for running linux in virtualbox to dualboot my pc with windows

The problem seems to be your limited hardware resources.
1. I suggest don't run Gnu/Linux on virtual. If you truly want to learn Gnu/Linux give all the space to it instead.
2. "Hacking" is a term which is both honorable and abhorrent, a means justifiable or condemnable mainly by its end. So I suggest you avoid using it here, rather, state in detail what you want to do with your system... for all true hackers begin that way.
3. The best way is to try the good advice above, they are those who have gone through the road ahead, or try create your own system as slim as you can --try Linux-From-Scratch-- that way you might learn to hack your own system.
I once ran an Absolute Linux version 12 in an old 600mhz machine and it was faster than I expected. Try that solution too.
Good luck and enjoy.
