On 3 Dec 2024 00:11 +0000, from phb@hbsys.plus.com (Peter Hillier-Brook): > Once upon a time I had Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 10 VMs running > under VirtualBox on Debian 10 or earlier.

To run VirtualBox on Debian, you need to go out of tree; VirtualBox is no longer shipped by Debian (except, oddly enough, in Sid from the looks of it). Unless you have a particular requirement to use _specifically_ VirtualBox, KVM + AQEMU may be a more reasonable choice these days. > The sources are all licensed products on CD-ROMs and VirtualBox seems to > expect ISO inputs which is, of course a non-starter. "ISO inputs which is, of course a non-starter" Why? -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se
