I have been trying to install Oracle Virtual box in raspbian, but when I follow Oracle's tutorial, I get the error:

W: Failed to fetch http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/dists /saucy/Release Unable to find expected entry 'contrib/binary-armhf/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

I know that this means the raspi can't get the file, but is there any other way to install it?

    I doubt Oracle provides VirtualBox binaries for ARM, in this case for good reasons as well (SD wear, very limited resources).

You cannot run Virtualbox on the Pi because it is only available for i386 and amd64 and will not run on the Pi CPU.
