Re: Discuss the 5.0.4 release

Just want to add that we found the following bug: If a very early error message is shown during VM startup (e.g. kernel modules not installed on a Linux host) then the VM process will crash instead of showing the error message. This happens for instance if users upgrade their host kernel and forget to recompile the VBox kernel modules and the user is clueless because he doesn't know what's happen. This bug will be fixed in the next 5.0.x maintenance release.
