I had trouble running VirtualBox on Fedora 39. I could not get the
kernel modules to build correctly. But it happened around the time of
F39 release, so that may have changed by now.

I switched to QEMU/KVM/libvirt. The nice thing about these packages
are, they are supported by the kernel out-of-the-box. You don't have
to putz around with tainted modules or signing kernel modules.

I don't know how well QEMU/KVM/libvirt handle other disk images, like
from VMware.
