VirtualBox
----------
The `VirtualBox <https://www.virtualbox.org/>`__ provider can bootstrap
to both .vdi and .vmdk images (raw images are also supported but do not
run in VirtualBox). It's advisable to always use vmdk images for
interoperability (e.g.
`OVF <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Virtualization_Format>`__ files
*should* support vdi files, but since they have no identifier URL not
even VirtualBox itself can import them).
VirtualBox Guest Additions can be installed automatically if the ISO is
`provided in the manifest <../../../manifests/#bootstrapper>`__.
VirtualBox Additions iso can be installed from main Debian repo by running:
`apt install virtualbox-guest-additions-iso`
