I created a vdi virtual drive.
I installed Fedora.
All is good.
The install is limited to a small screen. In order to Fedora to use the full screen, the Additions must be installed.
From the VBox Device menu, choose Install Guest Additions.
Authenticate with the su password.
An error appeared about kernel-devel-... missing.
I opened a terminal window and switched to su.
yum install kernel-devel-...
Closed the window for the guest additions, but left the terminal open.
Forced an unmount to the Guest Additions, from the Device->CD menu.
Reran guest additions.
Error: could not find gcc.
Back in terminal window, did following (-y answers yes to all questions):
yum -y update kernel
yum -y install kernel-devel kernel-headers dkms gcc gcc-c++ Reran additions. All OK.Logged out/logged in. Full screen works.
Host key is right-control key, by default.
Host-F toggles full screen; Host-Home opens VBox menu.
