Headless VirtualBox is fine.
Here is the general setup so far:
* 2 vcpu+, 2048 ram, 2x sata disks 4GB (OS) + 16GB+ (DATA), Intel Pro
1000 MT Desktop NIC
* Bridged network adapter + IP, or NAT with a local port forwarded to
the Haiku machine (22).
* Installation of recent Haiku (x86_64 or x86_gcc2. I think we need
x86_gcc2 more)
* adduser sshd
* restart so SSH will start
* add public keys to ~/config/settings/ssh/authorized_keys
* We'll test login + configure
We likely should standardize this stuff somehow.

OK! Would a headless install of VirtualBox be sufficient?

All,
I've provisioned a server which I'm going to use for the Haiku Wiki - the one I've been going on about in the forums; I'm going to put it online to gauge interest.
However, the server itself is actually pretty beefy - it's running in a Datacentre in Germany and has 1TB of RAID disk space, 16GB RAM and 1GB of bandwidth... so my question is, can the Haiku team make use of it for mirroring or building code?
Yes :)
There are two ways you can contribute build machines to the Haiku
project:
- If you run Haiku (natively or in a virtual machine), we can use it as
a package buildbot. It will then compile recipes from haikuports. We
are currently working on setting this up and do need some servers.
- If you don't want to run Haiku on it, you can also contribute it as a
buildbot, that will compile Haiku code and generate nightly builds.
I don't know if we have detailed instructions for the second case. For
the first one, all you need to do is install Haiku (recent nightly)
and grant us some ssh access, we can automate the setup from there.
