Oracle has released the fifth update to version 4.2 of VirtualBox, but the website has been down for some time due to technical issues. VirtualBox can be used to install other operating systems in a virtual environment on a computer. In this way it is possible to use different operating systems on the same hardware side by side and at the same time. VirtualBox is available for Windows XP and above, OS X, Linux, and Solaris, and is capable of many guest operating systems to turn.

Version 4.2 of VirtualBox brings, among other things, improved support for Windows 8. In addition, Linux, Solaris and OS X now allow virtual machines to be started at boot time and files can be copied to Linux hosts using drag&drop. In version 4.2.10 the following changes and improvements have also been made:

The following items were fixed and/or added:

  • GUI: fixed keyboard with XQuartz X server (bug #10664)
  • Main/Display: fixed a crash with multi-monitors under certain conditions (Mac OS X hosts only)
  • Main/Properties: fixed a crash under certain conditions, for example after wakeup from host hibernate (bug #11444)
  • Settings: don’t lose the internal network settings if they are not currently active
  • Storage: another incompatibility fix for VHD differencing images with Hyper-V (bug #5990)
  • VBoxManage: don’t read beyond the end of the file specified with export –eulafile (bug #11528)
  • Linux hosts / guests: Linux 3.9-rc0 compile fixes (bug #11529)
