yordan 10 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 It's worth try it. It only needs the virtualbox virtual network adapter to be included in your ubuntu distro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wutske 0 Report post Posted August 25, 2009 Wouldn't be a problem, I've already used several operating systems in Virtualbox, both on a windows and a linux host and none of them gave a problem with the adapters provided with Virtualbox (there are 5 different network adapters you can choose from, there's always at least one that works by default as it's drivers are included in the guest operating system by default).
