If you need to do audio separately for whatever reason:
Audacity is the standard.

I also +1 on recordmydesktop - I use the gtkrecordmydesktop variant.
This could be considered the standard for recording inside the vm or on
a live boot, you'll just need something else to record the booting of
the vm or disc.

Thanks,
Alex
