I do not know if the VBOX bios supports a "boot order" list of devices.
I have never tried it. I am sure you can try it by pressing F2 or F12
as soon as you start the VM.
Of cource, you will need to have focused the mouse and keyboard
in the VM window, so that the Xserver or other app will not grab the
the F keys. Once you are in the VM bios, you can set the boot order.
Cheers,
JD

It is described in the Manual, how to bind physical disks directly to
Virtual Machines, its in the appendix - as far as i remember.
JD contacted me offline, cos he thought his reply did not make it to the
list. And I answered him, that the way he described (and you hinted in
the manual, I guess) is not what I am looking for.
What I wanted to know is if USB will get an entry in the BIOS boot
order, which you can choose in the settings of a VM.
So, one would be able to boot a VM not only from Floppy, CD or HDD (and
Network), but also from USB. Lots of real computers have that feature,
would be nice to have it in VM. To test bootable USB media, without
rebooting the PC ;-)
Regards,
OJ
