Well, all the info you need is in chapter 8. Sun leaves the
putting it all together part up to you, which I think is quite reasonable.

vboxmanage registerimage dvd path_to_iso

Note that the registerimage command has been replaced by I think

the user's manual handy to check right now, and the registerimage
command still works.
