#285 invalid no floppy on Debian 4.0 hosts (W2K as guest OS) - or for root only? oz42
Description

First, /dev/fd0 was not found by Virtualbox so I had to start "modprobe floppy" as superuser. This means that VB does not provide all features without root password.

Anyway, it did not help. After the modprobe /dev/fd0 was available, but not usable:

Cannot open host device '/dev/fd0' for read/write access. Check the permissions of that device ('/bin/ls -l /dev/fd0'): Most probably you need to be member of the device group. Make sure that you logout/login after changing the group settings of the current user. VBox status code: -38 (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED).

But everything is ok here:

$ id uid=1000(olaf) gid=100(users) groups=6(disk),24(cdrom),25(floppy),100(users),114(vboxusers)

$ l /dev/fd0 brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 2, 0 Apr 20 08:57 /dev/fd0

Yes, I logged out and in after having me put into the floppy group.

#12853 obsolete no automatic validation of extension packs hugh2
Description

Ideally the extension packs would be digitally signed like the main installer binary, with the signature checked by the main program when downloading a new extpack. (it wouldn't enforce a signature for a local file - you might want to write your own extpack)

If that is too hard it would at least be a big improvement to download them via https instead of http. At present download.virtualbox.org doesn't support https, and if you put https in front of dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net it gives a certificate error.

Currently if you want to validate an extension pack you have to

  • cancel the dialog that asks to update the extension pack
  • open a web browser
  • hunt around for the latest extpack (unless you can copy the URL from the dialog?)
  • download it by http
  • locate a hashing tool
  • calculate the extpack's hash
  • manually compare hash with that published on the website
  • finally, if satisfied, manually install the extpack
