VirtualBox on Genode

[Chris Rothrock]

I am working with Yevgeny on this part of the project and I am having the
same issue.  I know that running it through the QEMU emulator probably
won't work so I used the virtualbox.iso image and put it onto my bootable
USB stick.  This is the same stick that I have the Genode demo with a Nova
kernel running perfectly fine on, I have booted multiple machines with this
demo image, however the virtualbox ISO image boots, but does not load the
tinycore image properly - it hangs on booting to the VirtualBox machine in
the Genode environment.
