Portable-VirtualBox is a free and open source software tool that lets you run any operating system from a usb stick without separate installation.

Installation instructions

Virtualbox android mac os

If you have not already created a VirtualBox virtual machine for Android-x86 yet, do so as follows: Click the 'New' button, and name your new virtual machine however you like. Set Type to Linux, and Version to Linux 2.6 / 3.x / 4.x. Note that you should choose the appropriate bit type for the version of Android-x86 that you downloaded. As an option, (to take advantage of USB 3.0 speeds) you can install the free VirtualBox Extension Pack. Once installed, start your virtual machine (be it Windows, Linux, or some other supported guest OS). Plug the required USB device in a USB port of your host computer. Now, head to Devices - USB, and click on ‘USB device to.

  1. Download and run Portable-VirtualBox_v5.1.22-Starter_v6.4.10-Win_all.exe.
  2. Choose a folder to extract to.
  3. Go to the folder and run Portable-VirtualBox.exe. You'll see a window like the one below:
  4. If you have already downloaded the installer for VirtualBox from www.virtualbox.org click search and navigate to the file. If not, click 'Download The Installation Files of VirtualBox.' Portable-VirtualBox will show you the download's progress.

Install files signature

All install files after launcher version 6.4.10 is digitally signed. Signer is “Open Source Developer, Runar Buvik”, certificate is issued by Certum Level III CA. This is temporarily disabled until a new certificate arrives in the mail.

Note

VirtualBox needs several kernel drivers installed and needs to start several services: if the drivers and services are not already installed you'll need administrator rights to run Portable-VirtualBox.

When Portable-VirtualBox starts, it checks to see if the drivers are installed. If they are not it will install them before running VirtualBox and will remove them afterward. Similarly, Portable-VirtualBox checks to see if the services are running. If not, it will start them and then stop them when it exits.

If you want to save space you can remove the language files for other languages than your own. That can save you nearly 10 MB. They are in the nls directory.

You can also delete the documentation saving nearly 5 MB. You will find it in the doc directory.

When the VM is running you must press the 'Host-Key' (initially configured as the right CTRL-Key) to be able to use the other Hotkeys since otherwise the VM will have the focus.
