Running an external USB OS virtually

Hello,

I have a bootable external USB drive with Mac OS installed. I'd like to access that OS as if it were a virtual machine while running the host operating system. Is it possible to do this with Virtualbox?

Thanks,

Maxim

If your host is a Mac, maybe, although not likely. If it's not, nope. If your host is a Mac, and the external drive is bootable, you can just boot from it, assuming it's a version of OSX that will run on your hardware.
