Delete the ISO from the Guest Configuration after installing it.

Goto the VBOX Guest Configuration. And there delete the ISO.

Or disconnect the ISO in the VBOX Menu from the Guest when running.

After installing i go to CD/DVD devices option in Devices tab, and there i unchecked the iso option. its asking to forcefully do that, and i did, but it still not working instead it freezed.
N.B: I new to VirtualBox.
