Re: Error on "select and install software"
A bit more detail on how you went about it would help. Where is the downloaded installation file? Did you tell the vm where it is?
The usual method is to assign the downloaded file to the optical drive of the vm (just as you would put a DVD in a physical DVD drive) and start the vm. It should boot from the .iso (which is the same data as you would see on the DVD) and install the OS.

Re: Error on "select and install software"
If this "select and install software" is part of the install process for the OS, or a post-install process, and the "I fail" is a failure to authenticate the software to be installed, it could mean that Hyper-V is enabled on the Windows host PC.Kakuja wrote:for some reason I fail on "select and install software".
Please right-click the guest in the main Virtualbox window's guest list, choose Show Log.
Search the far left tab's log for this text:
Attempting fall back to NEM
If you find it, Hyper-V is enabled. See HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active).
If you don't find that text, save the far left tab's log, zip the log file, and post the zip file, using the forum's Upload Attachment tab.

Re: Error on "select and install software"
You don't have Hyper-V problems, that's good. The VM looks set up OK, except for the disk file being in your user folder root instead of the VM folder:
The VM starts properly, boots from the CD-ROM, then shuts down at 8:22 minutes because the close box was clicked, I think.\00:00:02.170742 File system of 'C:\Users\Kakuja\VirtualBox VMs\Ruiner\Snapshots' (snapshots) is unknown
00:00:02.170748 File system of 'C:\Users\Kakuja\Ruiner.vdi' is ntfs
Please define the "I fail" part. What exactly happens?Kakuja wrote:for some reason I fail on "select and install software".
