Optionally, for best results with SME 8.x and earlier versions,
modify /etc/grub.conf, adding divider=10 to the kernel boot options in order
to reduce the idle CPU load with VirtualBox. For example, if your kernel boot line is
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-238.19.1.el5 ro root=/dev/main/root
change it to
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-238.19.1.el5 ro root=/dev/main/root divider=10
