Folks,I've just started playing with Virtualbox - and boy do they make installing virtual machines easy. Download an .iso of a netinstall CD, point Virtualbox at it, and you have a window that behaves just like a normal install. Worked like a charm with both Debian Sarge and Etch images - doesn't seem to require any special bits in the guest O/Ss. I did all my playing so far with Virtualbox running under OpenSolaris. No problem getting Debian to run, but serious problems with the BSD varients, so far.
