I finally had a chance to test the obi_ToriOS-a1-9w image in virtual box. The first problem I notice is the lack of the package 'menu' being installed. This is the first 'major' issue. The second is, that I disabled PAE in the Virtual Box settings, and I couldn't boot into ToriOS. Once I enabled it, I was able to boot. I have to get my internet working inside it to test more, but I don't have anymore time quite yet.
I will make a second image of the regular installer. I like the Live Mode!! It will be really nice to use the full ToriOS setup in that livemode eventually!
