Hi, I was installing some programs (more than 10) in my guest, now my guest is restarting unexpectedly, no show messages, only shows the new starting machine.

How can I verify what happens? I don't know how identify the problem with the log file.

HOST: macOS Sierra 10.12.6
Guest: macOS Sierra 10.12.3

Horrific overcommittment of host RAM [ (1266MB - (2048MB+128MB)) = -910MB ]. You need to shut down some apps on your host, and/or add more RAM.
