you can’t use sudo until you do the following, but oddly you can simply “su -“/changeme to root from the vboxuser… screwballs, did it half-ass… in otherwords the root password is also “changeme” – I changed it
add this line immmediate following the root ALL=… line
vboxuser ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
Or simply check the box: Skip Unattended Installation, and you will have the option to setup your own privileged users…
