VM images

Version 1: an old (2013) minimal Debian 4.0 image. NOTE: this has an old version of libc and executables compiled on newer systems won't run on it. We're working on a new image.

Vboxwrapper

Release notes for the Vbox wrapper.

version 26207 (Dec. 2023)

  • Add options for sharing slot and project directories.
  • Add option for wrapping sporadic app

Downloads:

version 26206 (Nov. 2022)

  • "list hdds" is replaced with "showhdinfo ..." to avoid race condition.
  • minor security fixes

Downloads:

version 26204 (June 2022)

  • Added support for multiattach mode (avoid copying VM image to each slot dir).
  • Remove support for the COM interface to VBox on Windows. This broke with each VBox release, and was no more reliable than using the cmdline script supplied by VBox.
  • Make sata/IntelAHCI the default virtual disk controller (recommended by Vbox); make controller type and model configurable.
  • Makes VRAM size and virtual graphics adapter type configurable via vbox_job.xml
  • Forward CMOS clock setting (localtime/UTC) from the host to VirtualBox guests
