  [Impact]
  Testdrive gets stuck on "configuring Virtual Machine" if Virtualbox 4.2 is 
installed and selected. This does not affect Virtualbox 4.1.
  
  The fix is to add 4.2 to the list of versions of Virtualbox checked for
  as per the patch.
  
  [Test Case]
  Install Testdrive and Virtualbox 4.1 using the repository.
  Launch Testdrive, Use the Edit tab --> Preferences, and select if you want to 
use just i386, amd64 or both.
- Click on the Distributions tab to pick your flavor select the the <save> 
button). 
+ Click on the Distributions tab to pick your flavor select the the <save> 
button).
  Click on Virtualisation and select VirtualBox as the HyperVisor (A hint, you 
need only allocate 512MB of RAM). Again, select the <save> button
- From the main window of Testdrive, select the flavor and architecture you 
wish to download for testing. 
+ From the main window of Testdrive, select the flavor and architecture you 
wish to download for testing.
  Click on the <Sync> Button (as this is the first time zsync has been used in 
the area, it will have to download the entire ISO).
  Once the download has completed, click the  <Launch> button which will start 
VirtualBox with the iso you have selected.
  
  VirtualBox will launch the ISO.
  
  Close the virtual machine and Testdrive.
  
- Use Synaptic Package Manager to completely remove virtualbox
+ Remove virtualbox 4.1 (e.g. apt-get --purge remove virtualbox-4.1*)
  Use the link https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads and download the 
12.10 version (GDebi will install it).
  
  Re-start Testdrive, go to the area which has your ISO and select
  <<Launch>>
  
  The bug will manifest itself.

  [Regression Potential]
  Extremely low, it is a simple addition to the text line adding in that 
Virtualbox 4.2 is accepted as a valid system by Testdisk.
  
  This is proposed for SRU to both quantal and precise.
