– Press special key combinations with the Host key (normally the right Con-
trol key), which VirtualBox will then translate for the virtual machine:
∗
Host key + Del to send Ctrl+Alt+Del (to reboot the guest);

Host key + Backspace to send Ctrl+Alt+Backspace (to restart the
graphical user interface of a Linux guest);

• For some other keyboard combinations such as Alt-Tab (to switch between open
windows), VirtualBox allows you to configure whether these combinations will
affect the host or the guest, if a virtual machine currently has the focus. This is a
global setting for all virtual machines and can be found under “File” -> “Global

3.4.2 Changing removable media
While a virtual machine is running, you can change removable media in the “Devices”
menu of the VM’s window. Here you can select in detail what VirtualBox presents to
your VM as a CD, DVD, or floppy.
menu of the VM’s window. Here you can select in detail what VirtualBox presents to
your VM as a CD, DVD, or floppy.
The settings are the same as would be available for the VM in the “Settings” dialog
of the VirtualBox main window, but since that dialog is disabled while the VM is in the
“running” or “saved” state, this extra menu saves you from having to shut down and
restart the VM every time you want to change media.

Hence, in the “Devices” menu, VirtualBox allows you to attach the host drive to the
guest or select a floppy or DVD image using the Disk Image Manager, all as described

3.4.3 Saving the state of the machine
When you click on the “Close” button of your virtual machine window (at the top right
of the window, just like you would close any other window on your system) (or press
the Host key together with “Q”), VirtualBox asks you whether you want to “save” or
“power off” the VM.
