Ubuntu Host with Virtual Box XP Pro

Post by pcbdude »

I have a laptop that has Vista on it. I've had to re-install Vista twice and the OS is messed up again. I can't stand Vista anyways, so I figured I would install Ubuntu Desktop and run XP Pro via Virtual Box.
Has anyone done this and is it relatively straight forward to do? Any tips?
Also, I'd like to simply move my existing Virtual Box XP Pro virtual machine to the Ubuntu laptop. That Host is running XP. Is moving the VM via Export and Import Appliance seamless with different hosts?
