Hi,
I'm running a home NAS using OI 151a7 "server" (vs. "desktop"). I was
thinking of running Ubuntu Server in a virtual machine on OI, ideally
configured to startup/shutdown when OI starts/shuts down. I can
connect a monitor to the machine, but it generally should run
headless.
I found there is a very helpful entry on the wiki [1] describing most
of the steps. Has anyone successfully installed VirtualBox on a
headless OI and have any other tips before I dive in?
I have. Even running two Windows guests on a headless box. They are
accessible by rdp which is provided by vbox.
To do that I had to monkey with SMF. If you just have one Ubuntu guest,
you should be fine with whatever VirtualBox provides. Too bad you won't
be able to use the crossbow driver.
