Sorry not to have replied sooner but it is partly because I have been REALLY busy but mainly because I am no expert on virtualbox. My problem was just an /etc/redhatrelease file that I had put to be able to install something else and needed to delete for VB. To be quite honest, after having overcome the initial problem I never had time to tackle the problems that followed (video I think). Anyway, I presume you'd given up on the idea of a reply from me (and now you have it, it is no use) but I did want to apologise for not having said so sooner.
