[vbox-dev] (Bug?)VT-Bit

[Ivo Smits]

The .vbox-prev(ious) is a backup file. I think it is overwritten with a 
copy of the .vbox file every now and then when the .vbox file is 
modified. The .vbox file is the actual configuration file, and the one 
you have to edit to make this work. It is recommended to close 
VirtualBox completely and wait several seconds (for the VBoxSVC process 
to shut down) before editing the file.
