If you want us to take a look (regarding VirtualBox 6.1.36), create your own topic, reproduce and describe your problem and provide a zip file containing the VBoxHardening.log and VBox.log files.

Tested using 6.1.36, this time with Hyper-V disabled, still not working. In the other hand, AlmaLinux 8 works fine in the same machine, regardless if Hyper-V is enabled or disabled.

I'll create the issue as requested.

Even after turning off the hyper-v in the Windows 11, the RHEL 9 still will panic in the VirtualBox.

There's many folks who don't actually successfully do this after they think they've done it. If the green turtle is still in the VM's Status Bar, then underlying Hyper-V is still enabled. See HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active).

Fujitsu_user, please start a new topic if you want to pursue this further.

I installed successfully on 6.1.34 (Windows 10, no HyperV) and am able to boot the VM on an Ubuntu 20.04 host running 6.1.36.

Creating a clone fails with the LVM unable to find the volumes on the /dev/sda2 partition.

Apparently cloning the diskchanges an LVM ID somewhere. I had to use this URL to get the VM "back":
