i would like a x86_64 vdi (vbox) one with vbox guest additions on it.
Also one that can act like a buildnode (uirt setup properly to work out of the
box: that can build for both archs; and for cauldron and for stable1 in
chroots), which i can use for building stuff, preferably with urpmi-proxy on
it.
I'm willing to spend time on making this "buildnode" to work properly.
