Howto Install VirtualBox 1.6 in Ubuntu 8.04(Hardy Heron) including USB Support
2008-08-01 21:12
VirtualBox is a family of powerful x86 virtualization products for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Install Virtualbox 1.6 in Ubuntu
First you need to download virtualbox from here
Now you should have virtualbox_1.6.2-31466_Ubuntu_hardy_i386.deb package install this package using the following command
sudo dpkg -i virtualbox_1.6.2-31466_Ubuntu_hardy_i386.deb
This will complete the installation.
Setup User Permissions
Goto System -> Administration -> Users and Groups
Click on the “Unlock” button
Enter in your password and click on “Authenticate”
Click on the “Manage Groups” button
Find the “vboxusers” group which is probably at the very bottom of the list, highlight it by clicking again, and click on “Properties”.
Make sure there’s a check mark next to your user’s name, and click on ok you’re finished.
Enable USB Support in Virtualbox
By default USB support was disabled in virtualbox, so you’ll probably want to enable it. Otherwise you’ll get an error when you go into the “Settings” of your virtual machine. To correct this, you’ll need to edit the mountdevsubfs.sh file
sudo gedit /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh
Inside, you’ll see a block of code that looks like this
#
# Magic to make /proc/bus/usb work
#
#mkdir -p /dev/bus/usb/.usbfs
#domount usbfs “” /dev/bus/usb/.usbfs -obusmode=0700,devmode=0600,listmode=0644
#ln -s .usbfs/devices /dev/bus/usb/devices
#mount --rbind /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb
Change it to look like this (uncomment out the region by deleting the “#’s”):
#
# Magic to make /proc/bus/usb work
#
mkdir -p /dev/bus/usb/.usbfs
domount usbfs “” /dev/bus/usb/.usbfs -obusmode=0700,devmode=0600,listmode=0644
ln -s .usbfs/devices /dev/bus/usb/devices
mount --rbind /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb
Save the changes and exit.Now log out, and then log back in again for the changes to take place.

其實不是這樣簡單的。blue sea 写了:还是E文,其实装vbox,简单到死,在新立德里搜“virtualbox" , 再点两下mouse就安装好了。
1、在新立得里安裝的是VirtualBox-ose版本,
此版本不支持USB設備,所有如果要想有USB設備支持,還是到virtualBox官網去下載
virtaulBox的deb包安裝
2、下載安裝好之后如果要在virtaulbox中使用USB設備還是要進行一些設定才可以的。
