FYI: a how-to run Ubuntu Snappy in Virtualbox:

Code:

wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/preview/ubuntu-core-alpha-01.img
qemu-img convert -O vdi ubuntu-core-alpha-01.img ubuntu-core-alpha-01.vdi

You should now have two files:
Code:

-rw-rw-r--  1 sander sander 1618149376 jan  2 20:17 ubuntu-core-alpha-01.img
-rw-r--r--  1 sander sander 1592869376 jan 10 00:47 ubuntu-core-alpha-01.vdi


Now start Virtualbox, create a new virtual machine, follow the usual steps, BUT in the step "Create Virtual Machine - Hard Drive" (where you normally create a new virtual hard disk), choose "Choose an Existing Virtual Hard Drive File" and pick the file ubuntu-core-alpha-01.vdi you just created.
Proceed in create steps. Then start your new virtual machine running Ubuntu Snappy. Login is ubuntu/ubuntu.


Easy, isn't it?
