Dear,
I need to virtualize Windows 10 x64 in Virtualbox by running Linux.
When booting the VM, the home screen appears, however, it freezes, it only stays there.
I used this same ISO to create a Win10 VM inside Win10.
Using the same settings I used in windows 10, I can not virtualize Windows 10 on Linux.
Does Virtualbox for Linux have any peculiarities other than Virtualbox for Windows?

- Follow a "start the VM from cold-boot" / "observe error" / "shutdown the VM" cycle.
- With the VM shut down completely (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
- Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response (see the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form).
No. Not at this point at least.ricardoclaus wrote:Does Virtualbox for Linux have any peculiarities other than Virtualbox for Windows?

Re: Difficulty in virtualizing Windows 10 inside Linux
It looks like you're using the Ubuntu fork of VirtualBox. You can either ask in their forums for help, or completely remove/uninstall/delete/purge their version and install the official version from the Downloads section of VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)VirtualBox VM 5.0.40_Ubuntu r115130 linux.amd64 (Apr 20 2017 06:58:05) release log
The rest of the comments will help your setup, but I won't be able to assist you anymore, unless you have the official VirtualBox installation.
Any particular reason why you have 9 ports in your SATA controller? And you've assigned your DVD drive to port #9? Select00:00:00.537352 PortCount <integer> = 0x0000000000000009 (9)
Windows 10 supports USB3 out of the box, so, you might as well enable that option.00:00:00.537687 [/Devices/usb-ehci/] (level 2)
You have assigned all your CPUs to the VM. The host is going to run low on resources, since VirtualBox cares about physical processors, not logical ones. See: CPU Cores versus threads and Why is it a bad idea to allocate as many VCPUs as there are physical CPUs?00:00:00.537207 NumCPUs <integer> = 0x0000000000000002 (2) 00:00:00.729858 CPUM: Logical host processors: 4 present, 4 max, 4 online, online mask: 000000000000000f 00:00:00.729903 CPUM: Physical host cores: 2
And the 3D acceleration is disabled as well. Enable them both please. And while you're at it, increase the vRAM to 256 MB.00:00:00.853087 GUI: 2D video acceleration is disabled
