VirtualBox can be found in most distro's repositories. For instance

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose

will install the open source version (without certain proprietary parts like USB support) on Ubuntu and Ubuntu based systems, Issuing the command without "sudo" in front will install it on Debian and Debian-based systems (except Ubuntu, unless you are running as root).

You can also download a package from VirtualBox's website.

How do you run VirtualBox on PCLinuxOS 2009?

First you have to install Virtualbox. Go to the App manager (Synaptic) search the repository for the Virtualbox program. Tell it to install. You will have a new option under your emulators tab in the programs list. You go to the Virtualbox program and hit new, it will ask what media you want to boot from (img file or media). When I put in my XP disk it started automatically. You may have to go to the configuration menu and enable your CD/DVD ROM for it to boot from your removable media.
