I am a newbie asa you can tell. I installed vbox from someoens instructions not the package manager. What I have not been able to do is get virtual machine setup. I believe my problem is missing step to get virtual machine setup. I havent even got to the point where I can point to install file to install specific os.

If I could get gui working with xming it may be easier? --- In [email protected], c beck <usabecker@...> wrote: > > sent from a mobile device > On Nov 30, 2011 8:01 PM, "Rodger" <rodger@...> wrote: > > > > > > > > I have centos 6 installed and I have > > also installed VirtualBox.
