6.0.6 - Success, VM boots and work just fine.
Hi,
I’ve been fighting with my VirtualBox on my new laptop for two days now.
But your tip “6.0.6 - Success, VM boots and work just fine.” did the magic.
Thanks a lot!!

I too hit with the Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception for using Centos 7 on Virtual Box, I believe it is something to do with processor.
I have upgraded just only the CPU from Intel i7-8086K to i9-9900KS since then CentOS 7.6 and 7.7 giving me the roblem; (the Centos 7.5 1804 work fine also CentOS8 )
FYI: My system environment is: Windows 10 Pro 1903; Virtual Box 6.0.16; ASUS ROG Maximus X Code LGA 1151 Intel Z370

I just encountered this same problem, but this fixed it for me: see ticket 18690 (this is my first post so I can't add a link)

I just ran this command on my VM and it worked: VBoxManage modifyvm <VM name> --spec-ctrl on

I used the above fix on a Vagrant generated VM and it worked, so check your system:

"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" list vms
