Hi, newbie here.

I'm trying to install Ubuntu in VirtualBox and am running Windows 98. After creating the virtual machine and pointing the installation to the ubuntu-12.04.4...iso file, I received the following message:

"A critical error has occurred while running the virtual machine and the machine execution has stopped"...

This message recommend I come here and upload my VBox.log file for help... help?

thanks,
Eric
