Guest hangs at boot time.

Post by n7rc »

Guest hangs at boot time. It loads the kernel, but the boot command hangs.

In the machine log the following:

Code: Select all

The log of another virtualbox installation with the same procedure is:

Selecting an AHCI controller for the virtual disk originating from the physical USB was solved.
