Running Ubuntu 8.10 Under VirtualBox

I use VirtualBox to have access to a lot of Linux development tools that aren’t readily available in my work environment. Recently, our IT department wrecked my installation somehow and I needed to reinstall. I got stuck when it came time to install the guest additions. I found these links useful for jogging my memory:

Thanks guys.
