I am running VirtualBox 4.3.4 and have Redhat Linux as guest on windows 7 with a vdi image of 6.5gig and 1.5 meg of ram

after 1 successful boot as desktop, I now freeze on startup at the swap file.

server installation completes but also freezes at swap file....now both installs boot into shell

previous issues were switching from SATA to IDE and increasing ram....what am I doing wrong
