Is there something like VMWare for Ubuntu? Where can I find it and learn how to use it?

I installed FreeBSD on my Windows Vista Machine using VirtualBox but after installation and rebooting i got the message FATAL: No bootable medium found system halted. I know I installed it. I got the message saying it was installed and to take the medium out and reboot. What could have gone wrong? Now I am installing Linux Mint to see how it goes.

I think I am headed in the same direction. If someone else out there could help me that would be great.
