any insights about that process?


Well . . .

The first thing is to get VirtualBox sorted out on your system.

The second thing is that Genymotion looks for the SDK which is hard to
locate:

~/android-sdks/sdk  (where '~' is your Home folder),

don't let yourself be distracted by 'android-sdk-linux'

after that it goes "all funny" about something that is supposed to be in
the /etc/init.d folder, but isn't; so you have to do some fiddling around,
and quite how the thing worked because of my fiddling around I cannot
really say.

After that things seem comparatively straightforward, and I suspect the
best way to
get an Android standalone onto one of the devices is by uploading it to
some website
and then downloading it from inside the emulated device.

Unfortunately right now I've got a lot of "extraneous stuff" on my
plate, but I hope, come
Sunday night I will be able to upload some reasonably pretty pictures to
the Forum.

Apparently installation woes are a YMMV kind of thing. I just installed without any headscratching at all. Just clicked through the dialogs as they came up and I was all set and running.
