Thanks. The instructions work well if you're working from within a Windows
system. Working from a Linux base, with Wine as my Win compatibility layer
(to enable VBox to execute), the process stalls and doesn't create the
VirtualBox environment on my removable drive. It looks like it's doing all
the work, but when the process ends, nothing has been created -- all I have
are the original install files.
Thanks for the effort!`
