Installing Linux Lite on VirtualBox Virtual Machine / MacOS ?

[Quouab]

I then came across this thread on MacRumors [https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ins...x.2201426/], same case it seems, but after downloading VirtualBox 4.3.40's Extension Pack [http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbo...ox-extpack] from here [https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_4_3] which gave me “An error has occurred” (instead of the original poster's “Archive type not supported”). If I'm not mistaken, it seems that Linux doesn't quite know what to do with a “vbox-extpack” file.

Are you trying to install the "vbox-extpack" in the VM? That's not how it works. You have to install it on the host, not in the guest.

That's what I had tried to do, as I remembered doing years ago, but it gave several errors as per the zipped jpeg. As explained, the reply in that thread on MacRumors was telling the poster to do it from the guest instead. Which also seemed a bit strange to me.

the forum here doesn't seem to accept jpegs.

You have to upload the .jpeg to some image hosting service like imgur https://imgur.com/  copy the link and paste it in your post. It's all explained here https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/intro...uidelines/

All I am getting on that imgur, for that 82Kb jpeg, is “Yikes! It appears this upload failed.” Tried three times, and really, right now I don't have the time, or whatever it takes, to try and figure out one more thing that's not working. They seem to pile up by the dozens, these days, in all walks of life. So hopefully the zipped jpeg I posted there can be unpacked by others.

As for now, I'll go and look at the link you posted yesterday.
