Hi,

I think he was discusing install OS's into vm's.  Personally the only thing I've installed into qemu/kvm is debian whitch went fine with -curses then using fb=false at the boot prompt.  virtualbox doesn't have an equivelent of -curses  but with some work you can do a serial console, but I although I'd like to learn I don't now how to install an os that way.  As a result since use virtualbox on a server, I used qemu to install the vm and then typically run it with virtualbox.
