so, on any platform, VirtualBox need kernel extentions to work ? no
alternative ?  (acceleration is not a need, for me)

Hi,

I think you have to be reasonable in recognizing everyone who has
installed VirtualBox using kernel-level privileges, has not had an
issue.  I've been using VirtualBox since it was first released.

Ok :-)


You convinced me that I don't risk that my system would be found in a completely wobbly state because of VirtualBox itself :-)

Though on
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Mac%20OS%20X%20build%20instructions
it says "The Mac OS X port is not yet completed."
Can you confirm me that there can't be anything malicious please ? :-)


So, I can use VirtualBox internally,
But I would like to have a Virtual Machine with an experimental web site which i want to put online to have feedback from visitors,
so it is exposed to the hackers

On a security forum, sb said that the Virtual Machines are not a perfect wall from hacking of the guest, and can also be hacked
So, I would like to have a Virtual Machine which runs in user space :-)


I installed only the system extensions, I manually extracted the application VirtualBox, I manually made the hard links in it, I made a soft link in /Applications/ ,
and VirtualBox says that it *wants* to be root :-(

If I'm ok for the system extensions,
is it technically possible to keep the application VirtualBox in user space ? or has it a good reason to need to be root itself ?




btw, is your shift key broken?  :)

Sorry, I don't have the practice (because I think it's not needed for understanding)
