Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try


Steps to Reproduce:
It would be great to include VirtualBox OSE (Open Source Edition) as part of Fedora and/or Red Hat Enterprise Linux.  This allows unmodified operating systems to be run on all systems (unlike Xen), and is GPL v2.

I've made RPMs for CentOS 4.x and 5.x (i686 architecture) which are available at:  http://www.lxpro.com/virtualbox/

Actual Results:


Expected Results:
