Following Jim Klimov's great manual word-by word from:
https://github.com/jimklimov/vboxconfig_sh

I made VirtualBox-5.0.20-106931-SunOS-illumos.tar.gz that includes 
repacked changes.

VirtualBox-5.0.20-106931-SunOS-illumos.tar.gz

You can also , following manual repack it too,
but I did it to save people's time for others wanting to install and use 
VirtualBox on OI. :)
