<y virtualbox asks for a dmg. However, VM setup creates a vdi. I don't understand what I can do. Help?

Start by reading the User Manual:

• 1.7 Creating your first virtual machine
• 1.8 Running your virtual machine

Hint. The .vdi file is equivalent to the HDD of a physical machine. The dmg it is looking for is the equivalent of the OS install CD.

You have a vm but you do not yet have an OS on it.

Yes, I should have added Ch. 1.2 Some terminology.
