I just upgraded to virtualBox 3.0.0 and tried to set up a new Fedora 11 box. (I had previously successfully set up one using virtualBox 2.4). The installation starts but at some point, it has problems:
BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s! [udevd:41]
Modules linked in:
Pid: 41, comm: udevd Not tainted (2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586 #1) VirtualBox
EIP: 0060:[<c0433f63>] EFLAGS: 00000246 CPU: 0
etc. etc.
O/S: Windows Vista 64 home premium
CPU: Intel Core i7
any ideas?
Thanks

Re: Problem installing Fedora 11 on Vista 64 Home w/ ver 3.0.0
After looking into this some more and doing more tests, it seems there's an issue if you try to let it use too much RAM. If I set it to the default 256K, it works, and if I set it to 1.7 MB, then it starts crashing or hanging or otherwise misbehaving. Setting to to 960K seems to work, though.
