VirtualBox is a somewhat common virtualisation system and it would be good for train-dev to build an image that works with VirtualBox, in addition to one that works with libvirt, or one image that works with both.

I can convert the train-dev image with qemu-img:
qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vdi train-dev.qcow2 train-dev.vdi
I can, in VirtualBox, create a new VM using the newly converted VDI. However, the VM does not actually boot.
Nothing I try seems to have an effect on this. Giving up for now.

I note that we no longer build an image with, or for, libvirt. We use qemu-system to build. The resulting image should work under qemu-system and libvirt, but I don't have the time to get it to work with VirtualBox, especially since nobody has spoken up and said they need it.
