VirtualBox OSE (Open Source Edition), also free, does come with the source code and includes several enterprise-level features, such as an RDP (Remote Display Protocol) Server and USB support.

The full VirtualBox is free for personal use and evaluation, but doesn't come with the complete source code. While not powerful systems, these proved to have more than enough CPU power to run both their native operating system and Windows 7. Each PC came with a 2.2-GHz Intel Pentium E2200 dual-core processor with an 800-MHz front-side bus, 4GB of RAM, a 500GB SATA drive and an Integrated Intel 3100 Graphics Media Accelerator.

In my case, I decided to use VirtualBox to run Windows 7 on two Dell Inspiron 530S systems, one running Windows XP Pro SP3 and the other running MEPIS 7 Linux. Second, you can use it with several operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Macintosh and OpenSolaris. While there are, of course, other virtualization programs out there, such as VMware's Workstation and Parallels Desktop, VirtualBox has two significant advantages over the others. To test out how well Windows 7 works on a virtualized system, I decided to use Sun's VirtualBox software. That's when being able to use a virtualization program can come in darn handy.

Start another terminal with command + T and find the directory where actually the VDI file stored.Nils-Mac:MacOS nilnandan$ pwd /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/Resources/VirtualBoxVM.app/Contents/MacOS Nils-Mac:MacOS nilnandan$ From here you can run the command to resize the VDI file. Open the terminal and go to the below path (default location).

I would just like to mention simple steps for how to do it.

Recently, I had to do this as 10GB was not sufficient for Centos6.7 VM.
