Kernel panic - not syncing after updating to Virtualbox 6.1.16

Post by jayA »

So I've been having issues with my VirtualBox for about a month now after installing the newest version. I've been trying some things to troubleshoot it, but don't know what I should try.

I would like to use Manjaro plasma, but I've tried a few different distros of linux and I seem to have crashing issues with most of the ones I tried. (ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Linux Mint 20, and Debian 10)

Host:
Windows 10 Home
GA-AX370-Gaming K5 (newest bios driver F50d) I also have SVM turned on for virtualization support.
AMD Ryzen 7 1700X Eight-Core
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB RAM
Samsung 960 EVO M.2 SSD
EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 XC

Here's the steps I follow that cause my issue.
1. Clean install of VirtualBox
2. Add new Linux Arch VM
3. Give 4096MB of ram
4. Create Dynamically allocated 32GB VDI drive
5. Set 4 processors
6. Change CD to manjaro-kde-20.1.2-201019-linux58.iso
7. Set VDI to SSD
8. Start VM
9. Select startup disk as the default
10. Select boot Manjaro.x86_64

It will start the boot and after a couple seconds it will crash. I'll post an image tomorrow of the screen I get(forum limit I need to be a member for a day before I can post links), but here is some of what it says at the end.
I had to type this out so hopefully I didn't mess anything up.

I've tried everything I can think of. What can I try to do to troubleshoot this? I'm at a loss as to what the issue could be. Thanks for any help.

More processors can hurt a guest's speed due to extra scheduling oversight on the host. Don't add processors beyond two until you have multi-processor programs installed in the guest OS that can use extra processors.

I have attached the error image.

I have set the processors to 2.

This did not correct my issue however I will look into Hyper-V and see if that will.
