VBoxHeadless - Running Virtual Machines With VirtualBox 4.2 On A Headless Fedora 18 Server This guide explains how you can run virtual machines with VirtualBox 4.2 on a headless Fedora 18 server. Normally you use the VirtualBox GUI to manage your virtual machines, but a server does not have a desktop environment. Fortunately, VirtualBox comes with a tool called VBoxHeadless that allows you to connect to the virtual machines over a remote desktop connection, so there's no need for the VirtualBox GUI.

Better use the "-a" option to append, and not set, the vboxusers group:

/usr/sbin/usermod -aG vboxusers admin

Good clear instructions - unfortunately, however, they don't work for PAE kernels.
