Well ,I have got it up and running on a stable of 26 June, managed to set up a vdi, no problem, but it will not see the cd drive. It (vbox) says the cd drive is always secondary master, but I only have one ata channel so it is primary master. The dropdown list just does not drop down. Is there a workaround for this, or have I missed something stupid? -- Martin
