win98 install: screen garbage in some text mode steps

Hi

I'm trying to install Win98 SE under VirtualBox 4.1.18.
I boot up from an ISO image and after selecting the option to install from CD-ROM, the process finds succesfully the CD-ROM drive but the next screen is full of blue garbage :? (see the attached snapshot).

I guess the failing step is the drive partitioning and formating.

I've tried other install options with the same garbage.

thanx

Are you following the Win98 installation instructions given in the HOWTO/Windows Guests area?
