Are you talking about the "install ISO's" like cdrom.iso or floppy.iso?

If so, yes, I can use them.  I thought I needed a full-blown release

ISO.
I am also stuck at launching the virtualbox interface itself.  I get

either a segmentation fault if started using a non-priv user or

an 'authentication rejected' error if I 'su -c virtualbox'.  I have

tried the usual trick of 'xhost +' as the non-priv user and then su to

root and 'virtualbox' but I get the 'cannot connect to X server' stuff.

Any help appreciated.  I am dying to boot up OBSD on this thing.
