| − | [[Category:Emulators (English)]] | + | #REDIRECT [[VirtualBox#Arch Linux guests]] |
| − | Installing Arch under [[VirtualBox]] is straightforward, and additions should be installed through pacman (not through "Install Guest Additions" in VirtualBox, or a mounted ISO.) Follow these instructions after doing a basic install of the X-window system found on the [[Beginners' Guide]].

| − | ==Install the required package:==
| |
| − | # pacman -Syu virtualbox-guest-additions
| |

| − | ==Load vbox modules:==
| |
| − | # modprobe vboxguest
| |
| − | # modprobe vboxsf

| |
| − | To autostart these modules each time you boot, you can either
| |
| − | *1) Add the three modules above to the MODULES array in /etc/rc.conf.
| |
| − | #MODULES(... vboxguest vboxsf vboxvideo)
| |
| − | '''OR'''
| |
| − | *2) Add rc.vboxadd to the DAEMONS array. This daemon probes the above listed modules.
| |
| − | #DAEMONS(... rc.vboxadd)

| − | | |
| − | ==Enable VboxClient-all:==
| |
| − | If you are running something that launches /etc/xdg/autostart/vboxclient.desktop, such as GNOME, then you should be ready to go. If you use .xinitrc to launch things instead, you must add
| |
| − | VBoxClient-all &
| |
| − | to your .xinitrc before launching your WM.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You should now be all set, and all guest additions should work properly. This was confirmed to work with virtualbox 4.0.8.
