Are you talking about the "install ISO's" like cdrom.iso or floppy.iso?
If so, yes, I can use them. I thought I needed a full-blown release
ISO.
I am also stuck at launching the virtualbox interface itself. I get
either a segmentation fault if started using a non-priv user or
an 'authentication rejected' error if I 'su -c virtualbox'. I have
tried the usual trick of 'xhost +' as the non-priv user and then su to
root and 'virtualbox' but I get the 'cannot connect to X server' stuff.
Any help appreciated. I am dying to boot up OBSD on this thing.
Since your host is not OpenBSD, I can't see how this error can be an
OpenBSD problem.
