networking vs. VirtualBox

[Michael Hennebry]

What is the magic formula for doing networking
from a VirtualBox guest?
So far, the only way I've been able to make it work at all is
to install a graphical version and click on the networking icon.
That doesn't work if I do a minimal install.
What does?
