I have a working native installation of 9.04 Jaunty and would like to download/install VirtualBox. I will then be installing other OSes inside VirtualBox.

The VirtualBox homepage does not have a package/repository for 9.04 Jaunty:
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

Is it safe to install the 8.10 Intrepid version (any special modifications I should do)? Is there somewhere else where I can get a package for Jaunty?

Thanks for any insight. (I can find threads on how to install Jaunty inside VirtualBox, but not the other way around.)

Yes, Install the Intrepid version. (Actually, on the main VB page it notes Jaunty right next to Intrepid)

Thanks. I was looking only at the repositories, and didn't see that both Intrepid and Jaunty are on the same line above. :-)
