Win98 install fails on VB 3.0.2

Just been trying all sorts of things to get windows 98 SE running under virtual box with no luck. Is there something more i need to do than run through the wizard and use the win98 settings?

I get to the install part. And where it reboots and says "preparing to start windows for the first time" it freezes there.

Any ideas?

cool and for those looking in the future....

Just used the default settings, and set videoram to 4mb, then disabled LAN, VT-x/AMD-V, acpi & audio before installing....
