Xen will probably work inside of VirtualBox but I doubt that you will be
able to get a HVM guest to work. Most virtualization technologies do not
pass thru the VT or SVM capabilities of the processor to the guest OS
(in your case, your Xen installation). So as far as Xen knows, it is
running on a machine that does not support VT or SVM. You can check this
by doing `cat /proc/cpuinfo` and looking for vmx in the flags area. You
should be able to install PV guests though. If you are wanting to just
experiment with Xen, doing it in VirtualBox is alright. But I would not
recommend it for a regular Xen installation.
Hope that answers your question.
