Out of the box Bodhi 1.2 has no support to install virtualbox additions. I did the next steps to be able to install: open a terminal (LXTerminal) and type $sudo aptitude update $sudo aptitude safe-upgrade $sudo aptitude install build-essential dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r) $cd /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.1.6_74713 $sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run then reboot ref: Full screen resolution for Bodhi 1.2.1 in VirtualBox possible?

Here are some references for VirtualBox VDI hard disk vidma tool  various ways with: GParted, vboxmanage, cloning & pasting (VirtualBox 4+) Now, I must say that vboxmanage --resize didn't work for me.

And after this I have no more snapshots AND I haven't lost any data? DON'T do that. You WILL lose you latest change made after the snapshot. This was what I've done, whcih was the reason I went after documentation for clarification about this snapshot mess. What you should do to merge the snapshot into the VDI is: - Right click on the snapshot (Snap1 in your case) - Select Discard Snapshot (Ctrl+Shift+D) That's it

Vista funciona bien bajo virtual box, no he habilitado el usb pero la integración con el escritorio (Gnome) es casi total, la barra y las aplicaciones en ventanas independientes. Lo mejor de todo es el sonido funciona bien (configurado con ALSA el VirtualBox) este me parece la mejor configuración para el windependence day que mi esposa tendrá próximamente (otro intento más :D). Si no fuera por el Office 2003/2007 que la mantiene atada de manos. Este fue un break para completar la VM de MOSS con Win2008Server....jeje yo vivo de programar en esa tecnología; total que no puedo tener un Server de windows como escritorio para ejecutar MOSS seria un desperdicio. Felicidades a SUN y el equipo de VirtualBox, ahora seria ético donar al equipo de VirtualBox unos dólares. Lo malo es que mis máquinas virtuales de vmware no las he podidos hacer funcionar en VirtualBox, hay que investigar más sobre ese tema. Hasta ahora lo más difícil ha sido Conseguir el Vista/W2008Server ....:D
