I have the extension packs for 5.1.30 and 5.2.2.  My understanding is that you 
install the extension pack AFTER you have installed an OS.  I've tried Win 7, 
Ubuntu and CentOS, none of which would install under Hipster.  The Linux 
distros produced a "no bootable media" message.
 
 I have VBox working using Win 7 as the host OS with CentOS as a guest.  Didn't 
have any problems doing that, so I'm a bit mystified why it won't work with 
Hipster as the host.
 
 I'd really appreciate some information about how well USB access works for the 
guests.  I really don't want to spend a lot of time sorting out Hipster and 
VBox only to find that the USB devices which only have Windows drivers, won't 
work with Hipster as the host.  I can think of a lot of reasons why they would 
not work.

 Have you installed the extension
 pack? If not, it's highly recommended. There's a
 link to it & its license on the main download page.
