Is it possible to install virtualbox on arm-based Chromebooks? #11

I have a HP Chromebook 11 and it is not clear to me if it is even possible to run Virtualbox via crouton on this architecture. Can you shed some light or point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Sadly no, there is no virtualbox arm version available.

Thanks for the quick response! Since I want virtualbox for vagrant, I am going to look into the docker provisioner: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/docker/index.html

@leto please be sure to post back your Docker experiences. There's a few comments about Docker in #364
