Hi!

I tried to build with rake build (--trace) inside Virtual Box with
Debian Wheezy 64 bit. It didn't work, since there is no NX inside
Virtual Box. Therefore I added to vagrant/Vagrantfile:

config.vm.customize ['modifyvm', :id, '--pae', 'off']

But that didn't help either. The pae error was gone, but after the grub
boot menu, I'll see only "_" (after loading initial ram disk). Running
the build instructions inside Virtual Box is unsupported?

Next thing I tried was building without rake inside Virtual Box with
Debian Wheezy 64 bit. That didn't work either. And I guess, that isn't
supported either?

Here's the log in case that's interesting.

My options for building Tails probable boil down to getting Squeeze or
waiting for Wheezy support? Is Wheezy support for the build environment
planed?

Cheers!
