4 <title>Configuring Custom ACPI Tables</title>

8 You can configure <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> to present up to four custom ACPI
9 tables to the guest. Use a command such as the following to
10 configure custom ACPI tables. Note that
11 <codeph>CustomTable1</codeph>, <codeph>CustomTable2</codeph>,
12 and <codeph>CustomTable3</codeph> are available in addition to
13 <codeph>CustomTable0</codeph>.

17 <p>
18 Configuring custom ACPI tables can for example avoid the need for
19 asking for a new product key on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows
20 8 and later guests. On Linux hosts, one of the system's ACPI
21 tables can be read from
22 <filepath>/sys/firmware/acpi/tables/</filepath>.
