Need Help ASAP.Just started, VB won't start completely

Post by ssc351 »

Hey guys,

I've got an Ubuntu 7.04 box with Vbox 1.5.0. I have been running everything great with the upgrade until I started using the shared folders functionality. Once I did that I noticed my network in the VM stopped working...couldn't ping out, no internet etc...but shared folders still worked. So I tried disabling the connection...that crashed the VM. Was able to get back in, somehow the connection got disabled so then I tried enabling it...crashed the machine. Again, was able to get back in, looked at the connection again still disabled, tried uninstalling the card through control panel. And thats where the problem popped up, now it will start up fine in Safe mode with networking turned off but with normal start up it will get to the blue screen where it asks for a windows logon then aborts.

a couple other things of note...I am running the seamless deal followed through this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=433359
Also, in that thread, I followed a port forwarding so I wouldn't lose Network Manager...see page 22. And that may be where my problem is coming from.

Here was the last log file:

Here is the error that popped up:

Please help! I really need this thing up and running tomorrow to do some major work!

What is if you deinstall shared folders? They a known to be a little bit buggy.

if I get rid of shared folders, it doesn't fix anything...i tried doing that before all the crashing started to try and get the internet back on the Vm but nothing. I got rid of it on both the host as well as the network folder on the guest but nada.
