- I have a windows 7 host OS. HW Virtualization is enabled in the BIOS.
- On Oracle VM VirtualBox added a Ubuntu 12.04 Guest OS. Configured it as 64 bit. Note: The System->Acceleration is enabled and "Enable VT-x/AMD-V" is enabled. Also the other Nested Paging one.
- Booted 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 guest OS. The booting went fine.
- Now, for some multiple system installation purposes, I need Oracle VM VirtualBox in the Ubuntu 12.04 Guest OS. Installed the virtualbox and the addons.
- Now in the Guest OS virtualbox System->Acceleration is not enabled. Can anyone suggest how we could get the Acceleration enabled on the Oracle VM VirtualBox running on guest OS (ubuntu 12.04). Please note Oracle VM VirtualBox is running on a guest ubuntu OS.

2You need to have a virtual machine running inside a virtual machine? This seems a bit redundant, and perhaps not an entirely good idea.– Charles GreenJun 4, 2014 at 16:00

Yes this is for some test purpose. Especially OpenStack. I do not want to mess with my host OS.– user288407Jun 4, 2014 at 16:22

@ Charles: Or rather some of the distributions I am trying is not ready for windows. Hence trying them on guest OS.– user288407Jun 4, 2014 at 16:23

I agree with @CharlesGreen running a VM in a VM will result in poor performance at best.– Elder GeekJun 4, 2014 at 16:25

@Elder: As i mentioned some of the distribution are not there on Windows and I need this hack to bring the system(s) quickly in. Else only way bring cygwin on windows and trying (which I am doing as well). If this is resolved then my task is quickly done.– user288407Jun 4, 2014 at 16:37
