help with debugging reason for aborted VM?

Post by cbf123 »

I've got a CentOS-based VM that I'm trying to install in virtualbox. It has aborted, and I can't figure out why.

I've attached the log file obtained by right-clicking on the VM and choosing "Show log". Anyone have any ideas on what's going on here?

Host is Ubuntu 20.04.4, guest is based on CentOS 7. VirtualBox version 6.1.34, installed via the official Ubuntu repos.

Running "dmesg" on the host shows this, which looks suspicious:

Your host kernel may be too new for 6.1.34. Please try 6.1.36 from http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
