similar to: Build VirtualBox OSE for CentOS?

I have some RPMs I've made of innotek's VirtualBox OSE (Open Source Edition) for both CentOS 4 and CentOS 5 (i386). These RPMs include the dkms support for the kernel driver, etc. I have a couple of subtle things to fix in the RPMs (like setting the permissions on udev devices, etc.) but they're already usable. Before I spend more time on it, and submit it for inclusion in the

I have a new OSX Lion Macbook and would like to control VirtualBox using "virsh" (as I do with KVM under Ubuntu). I've got this far: * Installed VirtualBox * Installed libvirt (brew install libvirt) But now I'm a bit stuck :-) I ran VirtualBox itself, and created a test VM successfully. If I try to use virsh, this is what I get: Brians-MacBook-Air:~ $ virsh -c

I am trying to connect to the virtualbox hypervisor through libvirt java binding. I am on Ubuntu 10.04 and I have installed libvirt-0.85, libvirt-java-0.4.6 and virtualbox-ose-dkms. I have configured libvirt project and its java binding at Eclipse and the default test of the binding runs properly. When I try to run a simple test in java with the connection: conn = new

I'm trying to connect to vbox hypervisor on an Ubuntu 10.04 machine through libvirt java binding (libvirt-java-0.4.6) by simply invoking: Connect conn = new Connect("vbox:///session", false); but I got this exception: libvir: warning : Failed to find the interface: Is the daemon running ? libvir: Remote error : unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock':

Hello listmates, I am wondering if there is a set of scripts/utilities for automatically starting and running headless (no X11) VM's using VirtualBox omn a CentOS 6 server. VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Hi, after updating my freebsd amd64 box from 9.1 (r250841) to 9.2-RC (r254276) virtualbox crashes the machine. Seconds after starting VBOX the screen freezes and then reboots (probably a trap, cannot see it, as screen is in graphics mode). The kernel modules of vbox have been recompiled. Going back to 9.1 kernel and matching vbox modules works. In both cases VBOX 4.2.16 is used. cheers, Thomas

Hello, I'm trying to use the VirtualBox/vbox driver together with libvirt 0.8.1 on a Ubuntu Lucid Machine, VirtualBox Release 3.1. The goal is to run the virtual machines headless and to connect using RDP. When starting a virtual domain using 'virsh start <domainname>' the GUI of VirtualBox will pop up and I see no option to prevent this. If X is not running, the virsh command

Awesome! Thanks for your replies everybody. I was looking more or less at the same options. Just was wondering if there was a ready-made set of scripts somewhere to set all of this in motion to save me a little time - but if not, I will just make one. Cheers, Boris.

My objective is also to run headless virtual machines through libvirt library. I am using an Ubuntu 10.04 distro and libvirt 0.9.2.

Hi, has anyone of you successfully used libvirt with VirtualBox? I ask because I haven't managed to connect to my machines and would like to benefit from your experience. Cheers Boris

Hi all, I have been looking at various alternatives for a system that runs several Linux & Windows guests. So far my favorite choice would be OpenSolaris+ZFS+RAIDZ+VirtualBox. Is this combo ready to be a host for Linux & Windows guests? Or is it not 100% stable (yet)? Greetings, Evert This message posted from opensolaris.org

hi! what is the difference between wine and a virtualisation like virtualbox? what are advantages and disadvantages compared to each other? peter

Hi All, If you would please suffer a Fedora Code 13 question on a CentOS mailing list, I have a Linux customer with Fedora Code 13 who loves it but is about to dump it because he really, really wants iTunes. (He owns an iPod and an iPhone.) None of the Linux utilities quite work right and he wants to buy music from the iTunes store as well. Plus he wants to synchronize his contacts list. So, I

Hi unfortunately VirtualBox does not work yet in a Solaris Dom0: I installed VirtualBox beta and it runs fine on bare metal. Unfortunately the necessary driver does not load automatically in a xVM Dom0. It can be loaded manually but it looks like it does not work in a Dom0: bash-3.2# modinfo | grep vbox # this is a one time task: bash-3.2# cp /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/amd64/vboxdrv

VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. You can also get access to a headless VM console via RDP with VRDE (VBox Remote Desktop Extension) available from VBox Extension Pack.

Pardon in advance my n00b ignorance. (Yes I have googled a [i]lot[/i] before asking.) I am considering VirtualBoxing away one physical machine at home, and running WinXP as host (yes, as atrocious it may seem, explanation below [1]) and OpenSolaris guest as file server, with OpenSolaris (why?[2]) having raw access to all my SATA drives. (OSes on the IDE channel). This is for home use, as a media

Hello everyone, I'm trying to run a VirtualBox-based VM in headless mode, but apparently running out of luck. So far: - Fedora 14 host - libvirt 0.9.8 manually built from libvirt-0.9.8-1.fc14.src.rpm (later tested with 0.10.0 built from libvirt-0.10.0-1.fc17.src.rpm to the same effect) - I have a VBox 4.1.20 installed with extension pack - a virtual Windows XP guest - can start this machine
