I made a brief write up on using VirtualBox to virtualize Luna. My
primary purpose is to increase exposure to Luna, particularly to those
less-technical users; however, it could also be useful for those
looking to create a clean development environment without fear of
breaking their production
Unfortunately VirtualBox is not a great choice because of its really,
really poor GPU passthrough drivers that can cause all sorts of random
issues, including crashes:

Running Luna in virtual machines is not a great idea in general because
I'm not claiming running it in a VM is ideal; however, it's often
necessary (a lot of people want to try an OS before installing it on
hardware; others don't want to commit to beta software). In short,
hardware installation is simply out of the question for a lot of people.
