Fatal: Medium Boot Error Message
I've been getting the "fatal" message on my virtual box. I had installed an OS on my Vista home 64bit fine. I tried to install another and that message started coming up, regardless of if I'm using my disc drive or an image. Anyone know how I fix this? I've searched all over, I don't have a mac so passthrough checkbox does not make it work. If you need any more info let me know. Thanks

Re: Fatal: Medium Boot Error Message
First get your profile straight. OSE Debian on Windows, yeah right. It's the PUEL version.
Second, take a look at the VirtualBox FAQ for some help. Your ISO/disc might not be bootable, so check that.

Re: Fatal: Medium Boot Error Message
I've looked at the FAQ before. I was tired and in a rush last night and don't know what that is but I changed it, thanks for letting me know.
Basically I have Windows 64bit which won't run Pro Tools. I opened Win Vista 32bit on virtual no problem. It wasn't that hard to figure out how to use. But when I tried to install mac OS X it didn't work so I searched the internet, found out that it probably wasn't happening. Then I went to install my XP disc which works on my real computer and I got the message. Then I couldn't even open my Vista 32bit which was working. I know how to mount and my XP disc works.
BTW the E: doesn't say anything.
