I tried building linux from scratch.  Though on a virtual machine, not a real one.

It's not booting.  😞

Earlier today I set up an instance of Tildes.net from source.  Hadn't used Vagrant before that.  It runs through VirtualBox so I had to disable Windows Sandbox which is built on Hyper-V.  Otherwise you get VM-ception.

The weird thing is that disabling Hyper-V requires two full reboots.  No idea why.

...which requires virtualization!

I don't get why you couldn't just not run VirtualBox in the sandbox versus needing to disable it.

Well I dunno.  Can VirtualBox use the Hyper-V hypervisor?  In that case it could run parallel to the Windows guest rather than on top of it.

I just figured it wasn't designed for that.

No, it doesn't.  Different virtualization techniques.

What I don't get is why you needed to disable Hyper-V to use VirtualBox.  That seems akin to disabling IIS to open Internet Explorer.

My understanding is that the parent is basically reserving the VM optimizations of the CPU (eg. VT-x) and they're no longer available to the daughter VM.

It'd probably be possible to make work but at excruciatingly slow speeds.

Oh neat:  https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E97728_01/F12469/html/hyperv-support.html

Needs at least Win 10 April 2018 update.

Well I'll be darned.

I have that update and it didn't work out of the box, but maybe I have to opt-in.  Might be the "paravirtualization" dropdown.

Considering the complexity of the software, VirtualBox really has very few options.
