Critical Error on Oracle Linux Install

[DitkaBearsSausage]

I've tried installing a couple different OSs and have run into critical errors during the install process. I thought Oracle Linux would be very stable, and the install could go smoothly, but the VM crashed mid-install. I created a new machine - I chose to use the entire virtual disk. I'm thinking maybe there are some no-optimal settings chosen in the configuration. Also, I'm trying to run a 32bit guest on a 64bit macbook pro host. I will post the log in a reply, because it is too large to paste.

Assigning more RAM than is available. Clear up memory on the host.

Next time you post a log file attach it instead of posting as text.

Sorry about that Perry, I didn't realize I could attach a file.

You can actually see the reason yourself. Read the available memory toward the top, and then scroll down to see what you have assigned. Not going to work well that way. Close some programs and free up host memory and try again.

Thanks Perry. I had to delete that install as it seems the system got corrupted. I started a fresh install with a lower footprint, and it is going well... knock on wood. I guess this was a segmentation fault in the guest OS?

Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it.

? You need to assign less memory to the guest and/or free up memory on the host. A VM can't use paged memory, so whatever memory you assign must be actually available as RAM. Remember that you also need to leave a decent amount of working memory for the host if you don't want it to start thrashing.
