I'm using Virtualbox on Linux. I modified a number of kernel options and now all of the guest OS's fail load. The worst is Windows where the host itself becomes corrupt and non-responsive during the guest boot process.
Is there a prequisite list of Linux kernel options available in order to use a VM successfully?

Re: Linux Kernel Prerequisites for Virtualbox VMs
You need to provide information on the exact Linux kernel version you're using. The above error you posted should be 4.2.x kernels and a fix for this will be made available in the next VirtualBox 5.0.x maintenance release.

That's correct, the error is probably related to changes in kernel 4.2-rc.
I originally thought it was an IOMMU issue. I shall hold out till a fix is posted.
Thanks for responding.
