nano /etc/apt/sources.list


add this line: deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian wheezy contrib

press ctrl + x, hit y then enter


wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -

apt-get update

apt-get install virtualbox-4.2


Now download the vbox extention pack via webrowser

when im running a VM on a net-book I want to see as much of the os as possible

right click the very top window shade > advanced > special application settings > appearance and fixes
select no title bar and frame > force > yes
(to close V-Box you can right click the task bar. to minimize left click the task bar.)

The status bar and menu bar can be removed from a V-Box window with this command



VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/Customizations noMenuBar,noStatusBar


If you want it back (to install guest additions or something)


VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/Customizations MenuBar,StatusBar


If you make a large virtual disk image and try to delete it you might get: "file is to large for trash" to delete it run


rm -i /stupidly/large/file.vdi
