To try the downloaded USB image in VirtualBox, first decompress the .xz file and then run

    vboxmanage convertfromraw ~/Downloads/gsd-usb-install-0.8.1.i686-linux gsd-install.vdi --format vdi
The resulting VDI file can then be attached to a VirtualBox machine as a primary IDE disk. Be sure to enable PAE/NX in the System settings.
