You use the lilybuntu.iso file to install the lily-dev ready
Ubuntu. In VirtualBox, go to the File>Virtual Media Manager
settings, click the CD/DVD images tab, and then add the
lilybuntu.iso file to the list using the "Add" button. Once it's
there, close out of that and go through the steps to add a new
virtual machine. Choose Linux, then Ubuntu, set up the virtual
hard disk, allocate memory and so forth. Once the machine's
identity is set up, you have to go into the machine's settings and
in the CD/DVD-ROM area choose to "mount CD/DVD drive," then tell
it which .iso image to mount. After you've set it to mount the
lilybuntu.iso file, close it out and then you'll be ready to start
up the new virtual machine and go through the Ubuntu installation
process. After it's done installing, you'll need to go back into
the settings and uncheck the box that says "mount CD/DVD" drive,
or else it'll boot back into the install process again. Once it's
installed and you can boot into a regular session, you'll want to
install the Guest Additions so that you can make it go fullscreen
instead of the 800x600 window it has by default. That's done in
the Devices menu of the VB window border around the virtual machine.
