Hi,
     I have tried build nemo for VirtualBox,and now it can start into
glacier ui. In the kickstart file(.ks),the bootloader option is :
         bootloader --timeout=20 --append="vga=0x343
vt.global_cursor_default=0" --location=mbr so,the screen mode is
800*600*32.

     I tried to set vga=ask,then boot it,but all options for select
do not include 600*800(width*height mode?) I don't familiar with
Virtual box and Linux kernel,the question is how to change the
screen orientation,rotate 90 degrees to 600*800? Thanks every friend.

Under ~/<userid>/SailfishOS/emulator/SailfishOS Emulator/ there is an
XML file SailfishOS Emulator.vbox.

The resolution for the Emulator is shown there as :-
<ExtraDataItem name="CustomVideoMode1" value="540x960x32"/>


You can find information on how to change that here:

http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#idp99599360

so eg

if you add to your VM:
VBoxManage setextradata "VM-NAME" "CustomVideoMode2" "600x800x32"

you have to set

vga=865

in the kernel command line.

But.... there is a comment at the top of the file which says :-
** DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE.
** If you make changes to this file while any VirtualBox related
application ** is running, your changes will be overwritten later,
without taking effect. ** Use VBoxManage or the VirtualBox Manager GUI
to make changes.

So have you tried VBoxManage to check/change the resolution?
