Hello Christophe, First of all, the ubuntu-be mailinglist is not meant for support, you can use the ubuntu-en, ubuntu-fr or ubuntu-nl mailinglist for support. For the keyboard layout auto detect you should type the + is you're asked to press one of the keys. That way it will detect Belgian AZERTY. I didn't have problems installing ubuntu 10.10 yet, but I only did installations on physical machines so far, not with virtual box.
