It does. And it's a kmod+reboot type install, iirc.

In general, if you want the ext partition to show up on the system as a
seperate drive, you will have to install a system module. There's no real way
around it. and that requires a reboot.

If you are just looking to attach to disk images, you could use explore2ext or
some similar tool, i forget the name, which is just an explorer-like tool that
you can attach to ext disk images.

what about QEMU instead of VirtualBox. With a minimal amount of hacking qemu
can get networking (and thus samba) working on a minimal GNU/Linx. LFS?
Debian?

Windows tool calle QemuManager can set up everything in GUI for you, and make
setting up the networking a breeze.
