Works fine for me.

Host system Hardy 8.04.1 amd64 with Virtualbox 1.6.2.

Host Specs:

Samsung X22 Notebook
Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 2.2Ghz
2GiB RAM

Virtualising Intrepid Alpha 3 32bit guest. Have enabled VT-x/AMD-V and PAE/NX and given the VM 1Gib RAM, 128MB Video RAM, SATA Controller, ALSA Audio Driver and USB/USB 2.0 Controller via Virtualbox.

Boots into the Live CD Environment and runs without problems. Installer works as it should, NAT connectivity works fine through Intel 4695 WiFi on host machine as does sound. Complete install of VM took approx 20 mins.

I found that after installation, the VM needed to be completely turned off not restarted as this would cause problems with X.

Once booted into the new VM, VirtualBox Guest Additions refused to install the Xorg modules (see VBAdditionsXorg screenshot).

Hope this is of some use.

Cheers, Phil.
