The I/O cache encountered an error while updating data in medium...

Post by cekoivisto »

"The I/O cache encountered an error while updating data in medium "ahci-0-0" (rc=VERR_UNRESOLVED_ERROR). Make sure there is enough free space on the disk and that the disk is working properly. Operation can be resumed afterwards."

I am getting this error when I boot into my OSX VM and I don't understand why. I tried shutting it down and enabling "use host I/0 cache", but then when I boot it back up, it instantly shuts down with no error message. I also checked my disk space and the VM is taking up 56GB of 300GB so there's more than enough space available. If anyone has a solution I would like to hear it.

Thanks

Post the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click on the guest in the Main Manager then click show log. Save and post as an attachment. Compress if it is too large to post.
