Oracle released VirtualBox 4.0, a new major release. It now has an open architecture using extension packs and the base package is under GPLv2.

I wanted to write this article for a long time but I never had the chance to do it. Today, I had to install the GD library on two different Ubuntu servers so I had to dig up my notes about this.

Start using VirtualBox 2.x USB support by following these easy steps.

If you got one or more of the following errors try to use the command below:

To clone a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox, first go to:
/home/[username]/.VirtualBox/VDI
or newer versions:
/home/[username]/.VirtualBox/HardDisk
in the console, use command: (don't forgot to change the virtual disk name to your existing virtual disk name.)
VBoxManage clonevdi vm1.vdi vm2.vdi

If you use VirtualBox but you don't have the vboxguestadditions.iso for your virtual machine, you can download it from here:

Version 3.x
