 +
*Suggestion-1:
 +
:Download the 2 files for VirtualBox import to a 2nd USB stick
 +
:On insertion; the contents of the USB stick pop up
 +
  An example:
 +
  f16-live-RC4-Desktop-sugaruser-disk1.vmdk
 +
  f16-live-RC4-Desktop-sugaruser.ovf '''<==click on this file and it immediately imports into VirtualBox (less than 2 Minutes)'''
 +
  (Only the .ovf file icon is highlighted in the USB stick contents)
 +
*Suggestion-2:
 +
:Export the VirtualBox .vdi hard drive to a 2nd USB and create a new machine that uses the .vdi to run
 +
:/home/(user)/VirtualBox VMs/ (copy all three files to USB-stick)
 +
:Create a new appliance
 +
:use pre-existing hard disk
 +
:Look for .vdi (on USB-stick)
