Unable to create any Linux guest on a Linux host

Post by FunkyFab »

Hi Community,
I've installed VirtualBox 7.0.14 on an Ubuntu host.
I can run a Windows 11 guest, but I can't run any Linux, including by using the same ISO that I used for installing the host.
The ISO boots, then freezes after a split second. I've attached the VBox.log for an Ubuntu and a Linux Mint, but I've also unsucessfully tried with a Oracle Linux and a CentOS. I've also tried several combinations of CPUs and RAMs.
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
Regards,

Please use either the workaround I posted in Re: Unable to install CentOS or a VirtualBox test build 7.0.15r161357 (or newer).
