On the following "How Do You Connect?" screen I select "Local network (Ethernet)", and then on the "Your Internet Connection" screen I select "Using DHCP" for the "TCP/IP Connection Type". When I then click on "Continue", the VM appears to crash, and then reboots, eventually taking me back to the "Welcome" screen again.
I have tried setting the TCP/IP settings manually, but the result was the same.
If I select "My computer does not connect to the Internet" on the "How Do You Connect?" screen then (after a brief whinge about not having an internet connection) the setup process completes successfully - but obviously with no network connection configured, which rather limits what I can do with it.
With the VM up and running Mojave as above, and having installed the VB guest additions for Darwin (and restarted the VM), if I go in to System Preferences and click on the Network icon it says "No services in this location. Click Add (+) to set up a service." If I click + I am sent back to the System Preferences screen with the message "Preferences Error There was an error in Network preferences."
I'd very much appreciate any guidance that people can offer to get this fixed. Since I don't seem to be able to get VB shared folders to work with this VM, I need to be able to access the folders shared from the host itself.
