I think I've mentioned this before, but VirtualBox, on multiple
Linux and 'Doze 64 systems that I've had the opportunity to use it on,
eats drives on a regular basis when anything abnormal happens. It's a
real pain in the butt, too, because you can't just restore to snapshot in
a lot of instances, either. I spoke to the devs about it; it's still not
documented very clearly about that. I'd say use it at your own risk. I
simply refuse to use it any more. Works wonderfully when it's working,
but if you don't have a good backup system for the VM's contents you can
get real frustrated really quick.
