Own project for this Sunday's BerkeleyLUG meetup is to use a recently-installed Debian 13 'trixie'-containing netbook to further install a Debian Testing 'forky' guest machine on a functional installation of VirtualBox 7.2.0 -- IMNSHO, Oracle Inc's VirtualBox has quite notably excellent documentation/RTFM for its fine virtual product :-]
