how to install virtualbox?

[afdskjb...@secmail.pro]

Is it even possible to do that? I tried to make some mistakes, but it
didn't work out.

Nothing is impossible, but it's too difficult and time consuming to
recommend. Qubes is already a hypervisor running multiple VMs. Why would
you want another one like Virtualbox on top of it?

I need the virtual box for development, there's a virtual environment
configured for it.
So if I am new to linux, I can't do it? Maybe there are some guides?

I dont think it's possible tbh. If anyone has done please tell us. Anyway if you really need virtualbox you could in a Debian live USB and play there.

Sure it is possible. If you have a particular question, just go ahead
and ask.

Running in a Debian standalone.
Install the virtualbox package and dependencies, as normal.
Edit the file, /usr/lib/virtualbox/vboxdrv.sh and comment out the Xen
test at lines 269-271

That's minimum to get you running. You'll be limited in what you can run
and vbox will complain if you have VT-x etc enabled, but it may do.

Interesting, thought it would be on the same level as Qubes in Qubes.
