NO!!!! The VM reads the ISO directly. There is no need for a physical
CD. That is just what we are trying to avoid. In VMware, go to
machine settings (Ctrl-D), click on CD/DVD, click on Use ISO file,
and in the dropdown, navigate to where you have stored the ISO.
That's all you need to do. You 'virtually' the same thing in VBox.
