Creating Fedora 12 as guest OS

Post by saikat42 »

In my Ubuntu 10.10 I have installed Virtualbox 4.0.4. I wanted to create a VM for Fedora 12 from i686 Live cd iso. But when I'm trying to install the guest OS from iso (stored in my host hard disk) it shows a error message : "Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!". So what can be done to install Fedora12.
