Od poslední verze Sun xVM VirtualBox
1.6.2 uteklo hodně vody, a mezitím vyšly dvě verze. Nově vydanou verzi
2.0.0 vzápětí následovala opravující verze VirtualBox 2.0.2

VirtualBox 2.0.2 opravuje opravdu velké množství chyb (více než
30 chyb) původně vydané verze 2.0.0. Hodně chyb se týká zejména
platformy Linux a Solaris, přesto doporučuji přejít na novou
verzi.
