Virtual Machine to Physical Machine

I have a virtualbox ( v4.1.8 ) install of a suze guest (openSUZE 64bit, 3GB RAM) on a Mac
host (MacBook Pro OSX 10.7.5, 8GB RAM). Everything is working perfectly for guest and
host.

However, The mac is a laptop, and is overloaded between all of the things I need
to do on both the guest and the host.

What I would LOVE to be able to do is:

1) Copy the guest onto a CD as an installation CD.
2) Install this copy of the guest as the primary OS on a separate computer.

Is this possible?

Please advise, TIA.

Best Regards,

Mike Andersen

Your question about the openSUZE guest.
I would expect better responses in the LINUX host forum and LINUX guest forum

I believe the Move a VM HOWTO will help you here.

If I understand your question you want to install a guest as the native OS on another machine. As far as I know that is not possible.
