   I'd rather have IPV4 and I'm pretty sure that is what I want to use
from VirtualBox.

I'm not ready to dive into IPV6.

i'd really like to have a compatible and functional set of entries
that are based on IPV4, but if I look at a sample from a long time
ago, I don't know if those entries will still be understood by the
current OS.

Here's a sample ifcfg-enp0s8 file for you:
IPV6INIT=no
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
DEVICE=enp0s8
ONBOOT=yes
UUID=d211cad8-d15d-46a1-b94d-2a42def47212
HWADDR=<put MAC here>
TYPE=Ethernet
DEFROUTE=yes
PEERDNS=yes
PEERROUTES=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
NAME="System enp0s8"

Put the actual MAC address in the right line or it might work if you completely remove that line. The problem is that I don't know how you've configured the networking in virtualbox. I've never even used virtualbox so I can't help you at all there. I only use KVM. But if virtualbox isn't offering dhcp on that interface (which would make sense, since the other interface is the default one), then this won't work. You will have to setup a manual ip address config in the file. If that's the case, then let me know the ip address you want and I will create a config file for you.
