Just wanted to let you know that I finally got around to playing with virtualbox vm's and, after running your change-kernel-flags.sh script in Chrome OS and your setup-headers.sh script in my 'trusty' chroot, and then installing VirtualBox 5.0.10 of course, everything is running very smoothly.
I had only used VMware in the past on desktops, etc. and never had tried VirtualBox. I installed a couple of OSes from ISO's and was very surprised just how well they run in a crouton chroot. I then rediscovered 'ova' files and installed some of them - quick and simple. So simple in fact I made a few of my own for safe keeping.
Just thought I'd let you know how it went, I've talked about doing it on a Chromebook but never had.
Thanx for your scripts and your wiki guides and stuff,

BTW, I did this on my Acer C7 (parrot) with:
4GB RAM / 20GB STATEFUL / 25GB CHRUBUNTU / 70GB CROUTON
