Would like to run my Vista 64bit partition from within Gutsy. Any good how-to's that cover issues and hazards?
I've been reading the Manual, and have read through section 9.9 closely. I also have read through this article:

However, I'm hesitant to move forward because of Vista challenges around hardware profiles and potential problems with booting natively into Vista after I've finished with using VirtualBox.

You run Vista 64, are you sure that would run in VB? As far as I know, VB doesn't support a 64 bit OS guest.
