Looks interesting. Yes, I have the SDL and QT. I thought this was the kernel used - not sure. Maybe it's not meant to run in Nop 4.0 r1? See screenshots.

Type:
that will show the kernel version.
Also, could you verify the md5sum of the .pet?

I got a matching checksum, but the list of dependencies is too long for the screen. Appears in the Utilities menu but does nothing. Terminal does not find virtualbox. No problem - some other day

I had the same problem. Huge dep list and no running program. I am using ChurchPup based upon Puppy 3.01.

Here is the icon from VBox Win 1.6.0.
You may prefer it to the Linux one, I do.

First off, WolfPup, muchos gracias for the package, brilliant! I've gotten Mac OS X, Xp and vista to run just fine (OS X is quirky, but mswin is spot on)..... the one problem i've had, is that i can seem to find anywhere to change where/if it logs...currently the pkg logs to root, and these files gain space quickly... I've quickly rtfm and ive googled a bit, but still have had no luck, i was wondering if anyone else had run into this?
eg.

HI El, I read some where on virtualbox forum that it is a known bug and you can change a line to stop logging till it gets sorted. Sorry don't know exactly where
Cheers
Tony

I installed VirtualBox 1.64 using the three pets. I used ROX-Filer to install the pets and wasn't given an option where to install, so the VirtualBox app ended up on the windows partition under root.
I was able to place the virtual disk on a second partition I created (but instead of the recommended 10 G, I allocated only 3, because the whole partition only has 9 gig).
That all seemed to be fine.
My question is can I use VirtualBox to boot my existing WinXP installation on hda1 as a guest OS or do I need to do a second install using my original WinXP CD (saving the system files on the new 3 gig Virtual Disk on my new 9 gig ext3 partition)?
I saw a thread on the Ubuntu forums discussing this and mentioning that it is possible, but required using a pseudo mbr instead of the usual VirtualBox bootloader.

I read the update on VirtualBox's site and they meantioned using QT4.0 which I may just make a pet of if one isn't made all ready. anyway here is the dependency report.

Users really should be able to delete their own posts in case of duplicate posting, Then messages like this one could be avoided.

I use a similar setup (Pup 3.02 - SDL - QT3) and I downloaded the VirtualBox 2.0 binary from the website. I installed it and had no problems.

I do not have any of the QT 4 dependencies that you listed. Here is the file I installed from:
