= Downloading !VirtualBox = Here, you will find links to !VirtualBox binaries and its source code. For a detailed explanation about the differences between '''!VirtualBox''' and '''!VirtualBox OSE''', please take a look at the [wiki:"Editions"] page. == User manual == The !VirtualBox User Manual is included in the !VirtualBox release below. If, however, you would like to take a look at it without having to install the whole thing, you can download it in PDF format here: * [http://195.34.175.98/download/UserManual.pdf User Manual] (version 1.5.6, updated 2008-02-19) You will need a PDF reader such as [http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html Adobe Reader] to view this file. Most Linux systems will have a PDF reader installed by default. == !VirtualBox binaries == The '''!VirtualBox''' binaries are available free of charge for personal and evaluation use. By downloading from the below links, you agree to the terms and conditions set forth by the [wiki:"VirtualBox_PUEL" VirtualBox Personal Use and Evaluation License (PUEL)]. Please note that the package architecture must fit your host operating system architecture. So if you are running a 32-bit kernel on a 64-bit capable CPU you have to install the 32-bit version (x86/i386). On the other hand you '''must''' install the AMD64 version (this is the same as x86_64) if your host kernel is 64-bit! '''Warning:''' saved states and snapshots are not compatible between different versions of !VirtualBox. Merge all snapshots, restore all saved states and shutdown all VMs properly before attempting to upgrade. '''Note:''' all binaries of !VirtualBox 1.5.6 were update after the initial release. The update fixes a last-minute regression on Linux hosts (host interface networking did not work anymore) and adds some missing i18n translations for all hosts. * '''!VirtualBox 1.5.6 for Windows hosts''' [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox_1.5.6-1_Win_x86.msi x86] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox_1.5.6-1_Win_amd64.msi AMD64] ''(only on Windows x64!)'' * '''[http://195.34.175.98/download/testcase/VirtualBox-osx-1.5.51-r27946-beta3.dmg VirtualBox for OS X Hosts]''' (Beta 3; Intel Macs only) * '''[http://195.34.175.98/download/testcase/VirtualBox-opensolaris-amd64-1.5.51-r28040-beta1.gz VirtualBox for OpenSolaris Hosts]''' (Beta 1; 64-bit AMD/Intel only) * '''!VirtualBox 1.5.6 for Linux Hosts''': * Ubuntu 7.10 ("Gutsy Gibbon") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_gutsy_i386.deb i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_gutsy_amd64.deb AMD64] * Ubuntu 7.04 ("Feisty Fawn") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_feisty_amd64.deb AMD64] * Ubuntu 6.10 ("Edgy Eft") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_edgy_i386.deb i386] * Ubuntu 6.06 LTS ("Dapper Drake") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_dapper_i386.deb i386] |[http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_dapper_amd64.deb AMD64] * Debian 4.0 ("Etch") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Debian_etch_i386.deb i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Debian_etch_amd64.deb AMD64] * Debian 3.1 ("Sarge") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Debian_sarge_i386.deb i386] * Univention Corporate Server 1.3-2 [http://forum.univention.de/viewtopic.php?p=726 instructions] * openSUSE 10.3 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_openSUSE103-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_openSUSE103-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * openSUSE 10.2 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_openSUSE102-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_openSUSE102-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SLES10) [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_sles10.1-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_sles10.1-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * Fedora 8 ("Werewolf") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora8-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora8-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * Fedora 7 ("Moonshine") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora7-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora7-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * Fedora 6 ("Zod") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora6-1.i586.rpm i386] * Fedora 5 ("Bordeaux") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_fedora5-1.i586.rpm i386] * Mandriva 2008.0 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_mdv2008.0-1.i586.rpm i386] * Mandriva 2007.1 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_mdv2007.1-1.i586.rpm i386] * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ("RHEL5") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_rhel5-1.i586.rpm i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_rhel5-1.x86_64.rpm AMD64] * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 ("RHEL4") [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_rhel4-1.i586.rpm i386] * PCLinuxOS 2007 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox-1.5.6_28266_pclinuxos2007-1.i586.rpm i386] * Xandros Desktop 4.1 [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_xandros4.1_i386.deb i386] * All distributions [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox_1.5.6-1_Linux_x86.run i386] | [http://195.34.175.98/download/1.5.6/VirtualBox_1.5.6-1_Linux_amd64.run AMD64] * Debian-based Linux distributions: Add one of the following lines according to your distribution to your /etc/apt/sources.list: {{{ deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian gutsy non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian feisty non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian edgy non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian dapper non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian etch non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian sarge non-free deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian xandros4.0-xn non-free }}} The innotek public key for apt-secure can be downloaded [http://www.virtualbox.org/debian/innotek.asc here].
