OK, before going any further, please post the recipe of the VM, the ".vbox" file, so I can fix it and send you the "proper" one back, along with the instructions.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

oops, the forum wouldn't let me attach it. Ok, here, I zipped it by itself with a new name.
