VirtualBox - Restoration Media Installation

A curiosity I found was I have had success using OS restoration disks to create virtual machines. In particular a government program restoration disc used to reimage laptops, I can't get into details.

In order to make this work however I found I needed to enable passthrough on the CD/DVD drive, otherwise it hung prior to detecting the media.

Just a note, hope someone finds it valuable.
