Decided to install Windows XP on VirtualBox 5.0 in OS X Yosemite. In version 5, paravirtualization was added. I realized that for Windows you need to choose Hyper-V, but for which one? The VB help says Windows 7+, while the wiki says XP+. The list of virtualization types is not filtered. Where is the truth and how then to determine whether it works at all?
