VirtualBox Testslave

[Colin Finck]

Hi all,

As tests have shown that VirtualBox doesn't work properly inside an
already virtualized environment, ReactOS Deutschland e.V. has just
ordered a tiny Intel NUC that will serve as a VirtualBox Testslave. We
plan to set it up right next to our Buildslaves, so that every ISO could
possibly be regression-tested under VirtualBox. As a start, we plan to
test the builds of the new MSVC Builder. The machine is powerful enough
though to eventually test multiple ISOs simultaneously.

I don't know about the current state of sysreg2 regarding VirtualBox
support. To let this all happen as soon as possible, please ensure
sysreg2 can fully handle VirtualBox once I set up the machine.

Cheers,

Colin

Hi Colin,

I will have a look at sysreg2.

Please make sure that the NUC is setup with the latest LTS. It will make
the process smoother.

Cheers,
Pierre

With latest sysreg2 available in SVN, it's working fine.
