As a few have noticed now, the new VBox image requires that CPU
Virtualization Extensions (VT-x, AMD-v) are enabled. I hadn't tested that,
because it's always worked in the past, and 32 bit machines don't need VT-x.

But, new kernels apparently do, even 32 bit ones. Neither Ubuntu, Debian,
nor OpenSUSE will boot without VT-x enabled, and CentOS / Fedora no longer
even support 32 bit.

Just about all machines these days support VT-x / AMD-v, but many vendors
ship with it disabled from BIOS, so it may have to be enabled there first.
