I have downloaded version 5 of Oracle Virtualbox as it has USB 3.0 support; useful as my new laptop doesn't have USB 2.0.
I installed win 8.1 in Virtualbox - guest additions installed successfully.

I then noticed that Virtualbox version 5 has UEFI support, so thought I'd create another win 8.1 virtual machine, though this time with EFI enabled, to see if there was any advantage conferred with UEFI.  At the beginning of the installation, using anwin8.1 installation CD, I was then presented with the screen below in Virtualbox, but don't know what to do next... any ideas?



Also, how is Secure Boot enabled in Virtualbox? Is it possible? Does it confer any advantages over the default 'standard boot' in Virtualbox?

Many thanks for any help with this.
Regards
Mike

Does anyone have a way to handle active pdfs?  I have a user who has a utility bill that they can view in Firefox.  But the bill comes as an active pdf.  The user can enter in payment amount, date, checking account and routing number, etc., and they can pay the bill that way.  But it isn't working under Linux.  Based on the following article, it doesn't look like it will, but I thought I'd ask.

What would be a good program to use to create a Linux Lite flash drive with data persistence.

Hello All,
Has anyone had experience with this adapter on Linux Lite 2.4?
Trouble? No trouble?

TIA,

Went away for a while and ended up using the ubuntu LTS - which STILL sucks lol

Glad to be back on LL.

Still as fast !

I am building a media center pc for a church I go to. I plan on using Linux lite because of price, usability, stability, and security. The idea I have is to install vlc, and google chrome on top of Linux Lite, and use HDMI to connect it to a tv. Then us a wireless mouse and keyboard so that it can be controlled from some distance away. I will be using vlc to play disks or any other files on the local computer, and google chrome to stream off of youtube, netflix, etc. Would this set up work? If not, what other software should I use?
