I believe reading some where that, as a free software supporter, I should avoid using virtualbox (free software version). Does this has a reason? could AQEMU be a good alternative then?

And starting with Trisquel 7 virtualbox will not be included as compiling it requires using a non-free compiler.

I guess this is the reason I believe reading somewhere that virtualbox should not be suggested then.

LKML put the virtualbox driver into the 'suppress kernel safety checks' naughty box because it's so unreliable quite sometime ago. Further virtualbox is not in T7 (Belenos) because it requires a proprietary compiler to build the guests' BIOS. So qemu perhaps with the VM management tool of your choice is definitely the way to go.
